Dillburke,

Can you tell us more about his diagnosis -- specifically where the tumor was located, the stage of the tumor, etc? That will help to get responses from people who were in similar situations.

That being said, many people here who have had radiation, or radiation with chemo, had to deal with long, slow recovery periods. The effects of radiation tend to continue for some time (usually months) after the last treatment. Is he being treated at a major cancer center? His medical team should be monitoring his weight, checking on his nutrition on a regular basis, and giving him medication to help control the nausea. Does he have a PEG tube to help with feeding, or is he eating entirely by mouth?

Many of us DID feel like we hit a wall at one point or another, but it does get better. Don't let him give up.
