Joined: Oct 2012 Posts: 1,275 Likes: 8 | My husband is starting radiation on Nov 21. The first chemo session is on Nov 22. We will be staying with my daughter in town so that we can avoid the two-hour drive downtown everyday. I would like to know what is really important to have on hand, e.g. baking soda, blender, etc., since we won't be at home, I would like to have what I will need on hand instead of running out to the shops all the time.
I also think I should ask to see the dietitian at the hospital. I am just so worried about getting John to eat enough calories and fluids.
