Tell your H to eat everything in sight. All his favorite foods, fatty or not. Once he starts the rad he will loose his taste and his mouth will get to sore for solid foods so now is the time to stock up as it were. If he's like the majority of us, he will not regain his taste for many many months post Tx.

BTW I went to 5 different docs before I settled on a CCC which was 45 miles one way for my Tx. I pretty much drove myself except the last few weeks.

What did they say about chemo?
