induction chemotherapy followed by definitive chemoradiation= in my husband's case was 4 - 8 hour IV chemo treatments every 3 weeks, followed by 35 daily radiation treatments with 1 hour chemo IVs every Friday. they said because he was so young they were going to throw everything at him but the kitchen sink. ...and they did! Hang in there and hang on to each other!
