Yay, radiation and prednisone! The prednisone should make his lungs feel some better and make it easier to breathe. I've got to agree with Shinja, we've got to speak up and not worry about being pleasant. (Sometimes we girls are too polite.) You're doing such a great job of staying on top of this and checking into info yourself! What a great team the two of you are!
