Bob and I had a long talk last night, with many tears. He is ready to get this started. We made a list of a few questions that I know are on a personal level and that each person will handle a little different. With that being said a general idea of what to expect would be greatly appreciated.
First, What are the side effects of radiation? How long do they last? Are there any side effects that probably wont go away?
With that being asked, What can we do to manage these side effects?
As for a feeding tube I am sure he will need one, will it always be uncomfortable as it sounds?
I know ther is some type of mucosa (if I am spelling and saying it right), Will he have a hard time with this, and is it a lasting side effect , and if it is Bob said to ask how often will this mucosa will come out in a days time?
These are hard questions to ask but like Bob and I talked about last night better to be prepared then to scramble at the last minute. If there is anything elce you all can offer before next week starts please let me know. THANK YOU is not enough but it comes from my heart so THANK YOU
