Steve:
Welcome! You already are being given some great advice. The two things you can do for yourself right now is continue with your research and learning (What a great resource in this site) and eat as much as you can as often as you can. Do not worry about calories or fat, etc. Your body will burn it up as your defenses come up for not only the cancer but the treatment. If you have a PEG tube let it become your friend! You MUST continue to take in calories and keep strength. All of the advice given by the group is important as you begin your journey towards getting better!!!
Stay in touch and best wishes!
