David,
Thanks for the response.Your input is always appreciated. I will get much more information today. She was not a tobacco user, I suspect HPV, which was the same cause as my own. Either she, myself, or another of her friends or family will post later today after her meeting with the Dr. where she will get staging information etc. Thanks again,

Frank
