Lynn, my heart goes out to you and your husband. I'm sending positive thoughts for him.

When I was on chemo, my motto was "have little pink plastic barf pail, will travel." It's somewhat embarrassing and definitely not fun, but it's practical. If your husband has trouble holding down liquids -- I would throw up EVERY time I tried to drink water -- go for high water-content foods, like lettuce or watermelon. Whatever stays down. Also, he can ask for additional fluid drip when he gets his chemo infusion. No one told me about it until my last time in. My normal infusion time was 2 hours and the water drip was an extra hour, but it was worth it because I couldn't hold down drinking water at all.
