Hi christine, im glad you have been through a similar experience. i think he'll be having the same surgery you did, but will have chemo/radiation after he heals. he is supposed to heal for 4-6 weeks before that part starts.

i will update my signature, once i know more details- i honestly dont know much ive only been told 2nd hand info from my fiance.

my future fil lives in syracuse, i know he is having the surgery done by an ENT but i dont think its a CCC.
