Gloria, many thanks for that. I had read your post previously but I was a little disheartened when I read of there only having been 1 done in the world and I'm assuming it happened in Canada? We are in Ireland and I doubt that procedure has reached here yet (I am open to correction).


Brother 51 Y/O
Had a biopsy to remove lump in throat
Recently been through Radio & Chemo
Is in recovery now and trying to deal with post issues
Has had 2 operations to allow food/drink go down throat (unsuccessful)
They say the throat is wide enough but it's the muscles are the problem with the swallowing action
Still feeding through a Peg
Has recently had another biopsy and the cancer is back
