I hope your husband is doing better, A great attitude and some prayer has really helped me. So I am stage 4 esophagus and before I started treatment I was losing 1/2 pound per day eventually going to mostly living off bottles of ensure. My doctor teated me with Folfox and Keytruda plus tons of prayers and love from family and friends, after 12 rounds of chemo and I think about 5 rounds of Keytruda at 62 I can still outwork people younger than me and I can eat again though Im on a bland diet because my tonged is kinda messed up, even the slightest seasoning hurts and alcohol of any kind burns like heck but Im still on this side of the grass. And simular to someone else story back around Easter I was told at least I have some time to get affairs in order (not my oncologist but a radiologist). Life is good please convince him not to waste a day worry about what he might loose but to thank the heavens above for all the awesome that is still there for him. Take care, Jim W.
