Shelly:

I had a similiar diag. I like David had the every 3 week approach. Compared to many I had an easy time however last few weeks were tough although most of the issues I had were from Rad. I did have a bit of hearing loss. They did do a 3 day "flush" after each chemo treatment, Nausea was not an issue.
I was able to do the 180 mile round trip myself until the last week or so of treatments. 2 yrs out I have almost no issues, feel great so your husband can beat this thing.
