Good luck! I remember sitting at home waiting for the hospital to call that they had a bed ready for me. It was my 52 birthday when they began my chemo. They have drugs for naseau and I took them. I took all the medicines I could to be able to live with the least amount of side effects (or affects!). Your role as caregiver is so HUGE. My husband was beside me the entire time. He slept on the floor in a sleeping bag and/or on the couch during the nights and went to work during the day. I could not have done it with out him. I am still plodding along and am alive! Blessings to you. Keep us updated.
