He is going to start his radiation and chemo in about two weeks. I am very frightened, do not know what to expect and want to be a good caregiver, cheerleader and help. What are some of the most important things that I should be doing now. I am encouraging him to gain some weight, he is thin and he just had some flouride trays made. I believe that our medical team is good and have faith in them. I feel so helpless here and want to get started on the right track.
