Hi Walt,

Welcome to the site, but sorry to hear about your wife.

Since David has covered a great deal of information I will just stress one point. Nutrition is the single most important thing to watch during the treatments. Be sure to ask your wife's doctors what they recommend for a daily calorie intake during her treatment and stick to it. She will need the energy especially if she has trouble with nausea and vomitting. If that is the case, extra fluids are required. This is all important because if your wife gets too low on energy because of malnutrition they may have to stop treatment and start over again. You don't want this to happen. It is bad enough going straight through.

Take care and fight hard.

Jim
