Hi,
I have stage 4 HPV tonsil cancer. I completed treatment the end of September - 35 radiation treatments and three cisplatin. When the physician tells you that the treatment is one of the hardest cancer treatments, you really can't understand.

I was lucky enough to have a sister that was willing to move in with me (from another state) throughout treatment. She's also a home health nurse. She tells me all the time now that she saved my life. She did feedings through my peg everytime I fell asleep. Otherwise, I just threw up. We started this after I lost 11 pounds the first week of treatment (dropped to 134).

Feeling much better now and glad to be alive.
Angie
