Amy,

Welcome -- I'm glad you found this site. Your husband is being treated at a great cancer center, which is a plus in dealing with this disease. My treatment was different (it was many years ago), so I'm afraid I can't comment directly on his regimen. However, it's good that he's still able to eat. It's really important to keep up the nutrition and hydration (whether by mouth or by tube) to try to minimize the weight loss that can come with radiation.

Please keep posting here to let us know how you're both doing.
