Hello again.
T thought I would give everyone an up date. Today he had a pet scan (we've not had any results yet). We met with the team last Friday and they were all very positive. They didn't try to gloss things over and told him what to expect. They examined him again and took more photos. They also said that the tumours in his neck were larger than the primary tumour, which tells them that the cancer is aggressive. He will undergo 33 radiation treatments and five chemo. As far as the cyst in his sinus cavity goes, they are sure it is benign. He is due to start treatment on march 21st. He also saw a dentist who removed his rear molar. He is extremely tired which I didn't expect, until the treatment started, but I assume it is partly shock because of his condition. Thanks everyone for your help.

When you get a diagnosis like this, you feel that you are the only one. Since reading most of the messages on this site I don't feel so alone. I pray for everyone that is having to deal with this horrible desease including the caregivers and the patients.

Irene
