Joined: Apr 2009 Posts: 4 | I (so far) have survived vocal cord cancer with radiation. This forum helped me so much! A friend has just been diagnosed with lymph cancer. Does anyone know of a good forum for her? Thanks for any information. | | | | | Joined: Jun 2007 Posts: 5,260 Patient Advocate (old timer, 2000 posts) | | Patient Advocate (old timer, 2000 posts)
