Well, my husband went in for his PET scan on june 19th and was told that the cancer was back and very aggressive, my husband opted not to have surgery or radiation. we had tried to go and do the nerve block but they opted to do a nasal block, which didn't work, the next day he asked me to call hospice and i regret to inform u less than a month after the last diagnosis he succumbed to the disease. He fought a great fight and died with his dignity, he was still giving a thumbs up to some family members the day before he died and went quickly. thank u for the support.
