Diana:
I honestly do not know if he will be taking supplements when the chemo and
radiation start. Right now, we're just hoping and praying to get past the
surgery, which is this thursday. He left today for boston. I will go to be
with him next Tuesday (when my brother and sister who are there with him now
will leave). At that point, he's supposed to spend 5-10 days outpatient in
Boston. My major concern at this point is what to expect immediately
following the surgery....wondering what to expect when I get there.
I am truly grateful to be a part of this forum. sometimes it just helps to
vent and know someone is listening.
