Thanks so much for all of the great info. The link that you gave is a site that I had not run across yet. We started the type of diet that you suggested about 3 weeks ago. The whey protein sounds like a very good idea. He eats a large amount of food but is still loosing weight (4 lbs this week). 6ft 1in and now weighs 192. Started out at 220lbs. Says he is feeling pretty good. First chemo cycle began today with gem/carbo. No nausea yet but he can't sleep. I think it may be due to the decadron in the pre-med. It's either that or he is getting super human powers from all of the nutrition and supliments..lol!
