Thanks so much, Wendy. I appreciate your feedback. I think my treatment plan is similar to your husband's: 7 weeks of radiation; three treatments of chemotherapy. No surgery unless the radiation doesn't shrink the tumor. This is what Baystate in Springfield, MA has recommended. We've been told that Dana Farber likes to add something called chemo-induction therapy, but I will know more tomorrow. Congrats that treatment has gone so well for your husband. I will check in to know more as he continues on his path toward wellness. When I see what's ahead of me everyone who is even half a step further along than me is my hero. Best, Michelle
