Gary, how are things today - any better? I know when my husband was in the hospital for his first week of chemo/rad treatment back in late September - all was going relatively well for awhile. He was on Cisplatin and 5-FU, and getting daily 15 minute rad sessions. He was tired and weakened by it by the weeks end - but he did not have any setbacks until he got out of the hospital that week. Overnight he developed pneumonia and congestive heart failure as a result of the pneumonia - and had to go back to the hospital the next day. It was rough. But he got through that, and in mid October went back to the hospital for his 2nd week of chemo/rad treatments which went a whole lot better overall. He of course was very tired and weak and lost a lot of weight by then - but these are some "normal" things to be expected from what I have heard. But since then he has been doing pretty good overall. I know it's going to be rough for you going through this - but you gotta be strong and keep telling yourself that things will get better. They will - it just takes time. Hang in there and best wishes for a quick recovery!
