Jace, I am concerned that your husband needs to get another opinion. You have not mentioned where he is being seen or weather you have access to a comprehensive cancer center or other large hospital. If he has not yet had radiation therapy, he may be a candidate for further treatments that will offer a better solution.

If you start a "new topic" by pressing the new topic button, you will receive an e-mail each time someone posts a reply to you.

Take care

Mark, 21 Year survivor, SCC right tonsil, 3 nodes positive, one with extra-capsular spread. I never asked what stage (would have scared me anyway) Right side tonsillectomy, radical neck dissection right side, maximum radiation to both sides, no chemo, no PEG, age 40 when diagnosed.
