Thanks for the informative post. I surely hope we get to spend more time with him.
The adjustment as a family to eating in front of him is very hard but of course everything about this journey is difficult.
I know everyone faces the difficulty of what is the best road to take for treatment. We all just want exact concrete answers and unfortunately at this time with this cancer(like many there are none).
