Hey Erik,
Dan was supposed to use 8 cans of BoostPlus in his tube, and that was way too much to take in. I got some info from a friend and asked about any other nutrition and we were changed to Nutren 2.0 which has 500 calories a can, so between 4 to 5 sustains him. Also, the Boost was covered by our insurance, but the Nutren is...go figure. Just wanted to let you know there are many options out there, but we were not told about them until we specifically asked. Keep up the great attitude, and my husband read Lance's book while going thru chemo/rad and thought it was also inspirational. I need to get reading it!
Take care,
Debbie
