Hi Roma and welcome. You've gotten a lot a helpful advice here already. You're own idea of writing down questions to ask is very good, also take notes during dr's appointments as your husband may find it hard to focus on all the details. We have all survived this and have had posters who are 20+ years from their battles and still living the good life. And you can imagine how much better weapons there are now opposed to 20 years ago. In your role as caregiver you will definately not have it any easier than he will. Many here will say it's even harder. Keep up your strength by being sure to take care YOU.
