As I shared in my previous post, my wife is newly diagnosed with bowel cancer that has already spread to her liver and maybe other areas.

The consultant wants to do chemo first rather than operate on the bowel tumour to give the the best chance which I tidally understand (the recovery time from a major op would allow the cancer to continue to spread). 

my question is, we have at least a week before the chemo starts and I know from my dad that everyone’s journey is different but what do you wish you’d have done to prepare for this whilst there’s still time. I am thinking of getting the kids flu vaccines sort of thing
