Hi Dave, from one of many Aussies on here. So glad you found this site, it's a wealth of information and the people here are the best. When my husband Steve was diagnosed we were living in Townsville. Got to go to bris vegas for the PET scan. Great hospital there. We are now living just north of Sydney. It sounds like you've been through alot. When Steve was diagnosed the cancer was too extensive so the doctor's and us opted not to do surgery. The doctor's (both Townsville and Newcastle) didn't expect a cure but hoped 35 rads and 3 x cisplatin would give us a miracle. We on the other hand didn't listen to their stats and probable outcome and 18 Months later Steve is still showing as all clear.

Make sure you come here often for any reason at all. It's a tough road dealing with oral cancer treatment and recovery. The guys here will help in whatever way they can and offer you great advice if needed.

Good to see another Aussie here. Loved the G'day. It was a dead giveaway to where you were from lol. There seems to be quite a few of us now. All the best Dave
