thanks for the reply. heading there now to visit him, will try and find something out, last I heard he was still too "weak" for chemo at this point, but may be able to start a very low dose soon......dr said if adverse effects would immediately pull back..........my husband is only child and not handling this very well.....he does not know what to do for his daD.......thank you for your words...it really does help!!
