I'm going to help a buddy get through chemotherapy.

8. 1. He might be fine the day or two after chemo, but will get worse as the week goes on.

2. Having someone take him to/from chemo is a big help, but may need more help later in week.
3. A little community forms of all the people waiting for chemo. Be a hero and bring scones or donuts or brownies or cupcakes to the session for everyone.
4. Make some easy meals for later in the week. Rice soup, chicken soup, french onion, meatloaf, chicken and broccoli, etc. Chili or tacos are good at the beginning, but later in the treatments, they'll probably avoid spicy and favorable stuff.
5. The treatments will have more and more effect on him as time goes by. He might feel ok after treatments 1-3, but will feel terrible after treatment 8. He'll need more help then.
6. Chemo brain. His thought processes will become worse as time goes by. Be ready to help out with the day to day stuff.

HTHs and Good luck.
