My husband got diagnosed with stage IV oesophageal cancer mid november, and starts chemo on monday. (EOX) We are all still in shock. He is 63, we have been married 23 years and have two boys 22 and 17. 
 

Earlier in the year we booked three nights away to the Cotswolds between Christmas and new year, are we mad to still consider going? I have no idea how he will respond to chemo, also he is having trouble eating certain foods unless mashed up, I dont want to cancel it and be all doom and gloom, as he wants us to stay positive but am starting to worry that its a little unrealistic....? 
 

I have no idea what to expect am learning fast from these forums, they are so helpful, thank you to everyone contributing and sharing.
