Met with my medical team today. Everyone was upbeat which made me feel better. I am going to receive 33 radiation treatments and 3 chemo treatments of cisplatin. I still have to get measured for my mask next week so it looks like around the 18th will be my start date. I also got asked to join a clinical trial so I will post some info under treatments to see what everyone thinks.
Thanks,
Curt
