Hey Sabrina,
I just wanted to add that it is so good that you are doing radiation as part of the therapy. My husband had Stage 2/3 tongue SCC and they did modified neck dissections and found no cancer, so said radiation not necessary. We never had anyone say it might be a good idea...never mentioned it. Not even 4 months later, he developed a massive neck tumor and is just now 7 weeks post treatment of chemo/rad. We were just at a oral surgeon at the time who did the surgeries. When he couldn't get all the neck tumor, we were referred to the U of MD and they had a tumor board. We feel like we have gotton the best care possible there and only wish we had known enough to get to a cancer facility right after diagnosis...you live and learn!!

Take care and God bless. Have a great support system in place has helped us get through this...hope you have one, too!

Debbie
