Hi-
sounds like we were diagnosed about the same time- only difference is that mine is on the LEFT side. I have already undergone the surgery and neck dissection- initially was told all margins were clean but 2 of the 10 lymphs they took out came back "hot", so- next week i will begin 30 radiation treatments. I was also glad to find this site. I am not married and dont have children, and by all accounts fairly young (39) to have this cancer, alas here it is.
Best wishes to you- like I said- your story is pretty much the same as mine. I am hoping you will have clean margins and be able to skip all the rest of the fun. keep posting, and nice to meet you
Lisa
