I was only two years younger than your husband when DX and also very healthy and fit. I echo the advice about Ensure Plus tasting the best out of bad bunch. Vanilla seemed the most tolerable flavor, and my wife would be very upset how all the supermarkets in our area had 10 or more cases out of the other flavors but only one or two of vanilla. Be reassured that the healthier and fitter you are going into this ordeal, the better the recovery. Like David, I had BOT not tonsil but IMO the addition of chemo to radiation is desirable. The two work together with the chemo making the cancer less capable of repairing the radiation damage than it would otherwise. So sorry you had to join this exclusive club
