What type of and where is he in treatment? Lung cancer is bad in that it spreads easily from what I understand. What's his prognosis? (never mind... saw a lot of this on the go fund me page).
I've recently done a lot of research on cancer as I'm three weeks into nine weeks of radiation and about to undergo my second of three cycles of chemo for cancer of the larynx.
Depending on where he is in treatment I might be able to offer some insights as to what to expect but every cancer and treatment plan is different.
The doctors have been giving me warning after warning after warning of all these nasty side effects. I told them none of that would happen to me and, so far, hardly any of it of it has and I believe my attitude toward it has helped me immeasurably. I've lost my sense of taste, my throats constantly sore from radiation and I had withdrawals from a narcotic they put me on to control nausea after my first chemo cycle but that only lasted for a day. Otherwise I've been feeling normal and the nurses have been astounded that my weekly labs (blood tests) keep coming back unchanged.
If he wants to talk PM me and I'll send my phone number.
