Thank You for your reply. His last radiation and chemo was Thursday March 8. The radiation dr told us the 1st two weeks after treatment would be no better than before, but he didn't tell us it would be worse. We are doing our best with the foods and fluids, he can't take anything by mouth. His age is one of the things that concerns us as a family. He was a heavy smoker, liked his drinks at supper time and combined with the stage of his cancer we are worried about his condition. Drs just don't seeam to understand. Sometimes I feel like the patients are just being "herded" through.....
