She is able to move around by herself pretty well. She has back & shoulder pain nearly constantly (arthritis) that we are treating with heat/cold pad, lidocaine and Oxycodone. This keeps her awake at night sometimes. She does not exercise as often as she should and I keep on her about this..... I am concerned that it will become more difficult for her once chemo starts and trying to get her into better habits now.....

I understand what you are saying. Chemo will most likely take a lot out of her. But immunotherapy can be a different story. Aren't the results of her tests coming up soon? Let's see what happens with what she is subscribed, ok?

It might help if you walk with her. Walking will be her best friend in the coming weeks and months.

Will she walk with you?
