Ampes wrote:Thanks for the reply’s and the link to the other answers from Fred . We are waiting to talk with the oncologist on the 13 th more in depth . I really think it depends on what type of chemo and how long he recommends he take it if he will decide to take it or not. Chemo as we k ow is not without risk . I will be more anxious if he doesn’t opt for it but ultimately it’s his body and he has to decide. It is such an emotional roller coaster ! Thanks for all of the reply’s ! I’ll let you know what he decides
