Dear Leonore, I am so sorry to hear of all you have gone through and continue to go through. My husband was 37 when diagnosed with tonsil SSC. That was 2 and a half years ago, and although we worry that he will have a reoccurence, so far, so good. He did get on anti-depressants for awhile though, and I would recommend them to anyone going through this and the spouse as well. I will keep you both in my prayers, please know there are many people on this board that will do the same and will be here when you need to talk.
Julie
