This thread spells out the Frack story
what is an old / young frack
Your experience is very similar to what my wife/caregiver went thru my first radiation and chemo TX since I "celebrated" my 6oth birthday with a radiation treatment and vomiting. Worse birthday ever! I hope the Erbitux works better for him than it did for me (for about half of us, Erbitux is a two faced "miracle drug": it either works like a miracle or else it's a miracle if it works)
We had a whole house humidifier before the cancer so I don't have a recommendation for a room one but Christine's post covers that well.
The important thing is to let your beloved know that there is indeed a rewarding life after this hellish TX. With a T1 tumor he should do great. It does get better but I have to warn you that you ain't seen nothing yet because it's going to get worse the next couple weeks. Hang in there. Soon your beloved will be back to his big strong handsome self - just like I did wink
