Robin was staged at T1 N2 M0 great diagnosis we were told.He had 62 nodes removed and 60 of them were clear.The ones that weren't were round his tumour site and removed at surgery to his neck.His upper body scan was clear for mets and he had 35 radiation treatments.

Get the picture Fran? There is no right or wrong with this disease every decision you make will only seem right or wrong in hindsight,thats what makes it so bloody difficult.

In England we dont get these choices to make ,just a treatment plan given at the onset by a multidisciplinary team after lengthy conferences between themselves.I cant say which i think is best,but with the benefit of 20/20 hindsight i wish they had thrown the kitchen sink at Robin despite his early staging.
