Hi Kevin,
welcome to the forum and what a great story. I'm still laughing about the shark or alligator thing! I lost a parotid too but from collateral damage from thr radiation for a right tonsil cancer.

Most of the folks here have tonsil or BOT cancers and a few in the nasopharnyx, maybe one or two with salivary gland cancer.

I sure hope that they video'd your wedding ;-)
