My North Carolina boy had rads/chemo only with a T4 Base of Tongue/Tonsil cancer. His tumor had crossed the midline of his tongue slightly.
So far, so good...we hit the three year mark on October 1. So far, so good but I am waiting for our trip to Moffitt Cancer Center for a checkup in November to shout out our three year anniversary.
Knowing what I know now, I would call for an appointment at a CCC and take those records for a second opinion. They will most likely back up the treatment plan you now have but that plan will come from a team of doctors that see this everyday.
I know how you are feeling at the moment..I still remember the ton of emotions and the weight of what was happening. Try to shove that to a corner for the moment, call a Cancer Center and get that appointment. Once you have that second opinion, come back here and we will help you thru all this.
Hugs, Deb
