Sorry. My lingo is still not up to par. He was originally staged T1N2BMO. I guess now he's nothing. Primary tumor on base of base of tongue removed & smaller than thought pre-surgery & tumor in lymph node removed. 23 other nodes removed showed no cancer. Clear margins after surgery. Does that clear it up?? Thanks for responding. Look forward to hearing your thoughts re radiation/chemo or not. We value all of your thoughts!

And thank you, Donna. He got through surgery extremely well, all things considered. smile
