Hi Norma,

I'm a year and 4 months out now. He is tired, and no one can blame him, although the worst is over. Hopefully, you both can now see the light at the end of the tunnel. Now the healing begins.

Aak anything, and my wife (my care giver) and I will try to help. My treatment was very similar. 35 rad treatments, 6 or 7 rounds of chemo, with 5fu, cisplatin and taxol.
