Nutrition and hydration are something that your husband must get enough of or it will make him feel awful. I thought I was doing ok but ended up hospitalized a few times for malnutrition and dehydration. This is something you will want to discuss with your husband now while he is still feeling ok. He must understand that if he chooses to not get enough calories and water daily then he will have a much harder time with his treatments. It is not optional, every single day he must get enough.

Ive seen so many people sail right thru treatments and have noticed what they have in common, its good nutrition and plenty of water every single day. If your husband understands up front this is not up for negotiation, it is mandatory then hopefully he will help himself and comply.

Every single day he must get a minimum of 48 oz of water and 2500 calories. I cant stress this enough. Ive seen others who have struggled and shorted themselves. I would warn them to push to get more and all too often I have seen these same patients hospitalized due to malnutrition and dehydration. If you are able to push your husband now and get him on board with this then he will have an easier time of it.

Best wishes!!!
