I know that feeling, 3910. I would have gladly switched places with my son when he was diagnosed with his squamous cell cancer. He was only 33 at diagnosis and we found this forum when he had already started his radiation treatments. Finding this wonderful place and people here made all the difference in how we both recovered and survived the experience. My son did not have chemo, just radiation after the surgery and his experience may not be the same as your daughter's, but if you need to talk on a mother to mother basis, please just PM me (send private message).
