My husband was recently diagnosed with oesphageal cancer. He has just had his first chemo and as a newcomer to all this, I am not entirely sure of the best way to care for him.
Since he received his first cycle on Wednesday, he hasn't got out of bed. He is due another three cycles of chemo before a big operation.
His diet is limited anyway with what he can swallow and he is diabetic as well. I am finding it hard to do meals for him. We are both elderly and now I have just found out I need an operation. As things stand, I don't feel I can go ahead with the operation while he is having chemo. So he is feeling rough with the side effects of chemo and I am having to cope with feeling sick most of the time too.
Any advice would be appreciated.
