Radiation, day 12

Neil woke up this morning with some blood coming from his throat (sorry, I know that's not pretty). I made him ask the nurse at his radiation appt. this morning (his exact words were "My wife is making me ask you why my throat is bleeding") and she said that she was glad he said something but that it's normal. She also said he was mildly dehydrated (it's tough for him even to drink) and wants us to get him some Boost so he can get some calories and vitamins in him. He only has five treatments left but it's getting tough for him to hang in there. He hasn't eaten a meal since Saturday and can only get down yogurt and ice cream. ONLY FIVE LEFT! He can definitely use words of encouragement because even though it's not chemo, it still sucks!
