Where was your husband treated? So sorry you are dealing with new issues, it is everyone's fears. But, just lately Charm had his third clear scan after going through treatment 3 times. Kerri a young mother just went through her second treatment and had a good scan so there are success stories out there. Glad you found this forum. I found it almost a year ago when my husband was going through treatment and it has been so supportive and informative. I am glad you held to your faith, it is all we can do. My husband is a Pastor and hard to believe he had cancer of his vocal cord which after the first surgery left him without his normal voice. It sounds like he has laryngitis all the time and he has no volume. He said he would speak again and he did. I am so proud of him and with a head-set mic he does ok. How old is your husband? Do you have kids at home? Jeff is 58 and our older 4 are all on their own but we have our 14 year old still at home. Take care.
