Chris is in today at MDA to have four molars removed and the dysplasia cut away. They are starting a full round of rads and low dose chemo after the first.
His doctor said they will be hitting the bottom side of the vocal chords which should diminish the damage to the voice but is closer to the area needed for swallowing. So 6 of this and a half dozen of the other.
We have our fingers crossed and I�ll update as time goes on.
