Hi Christine,

I met the dietitian yesterday, as I already lost 10kg.
PEG will be inserted in a couple of days. Surgery will follow, then Radiation. The surgeon told me that they will evaluate whether Chemo needed or not after surgery
I will try to keep the PEG as long as possible as you suggested.
I am going to chat with a radiation oncologist soon, as I am trying to understand the radiation methods

Thanks again

Michael
