CT, PET and biopsy results received. The cancer has returned, biopsy from soft pallet was positive and PET showed swelling on right side of jaw/neck is being caused by cancerous mass that is impeding blood flow. Jim's MO gave three options...surgery with just 15% chance of success, Best Supportive Care with 6 to 12 months expected, or Chemo to try and shrink. I can't make the decision for him and Jim doesn't even want to discuss yet. I've been searching this board for the many survivor stories to share with him to try and help restore hope and belief. If anyone has gone ahead with a surgery given these odds could you please share?
