Christine mentioned in her post regarding my husband that his 2nd oral cancer was a recurrence. I have always thought that and not one of the doctors we were seeing would admit that to me when he was diagnosed the second time in 8 months. That had always grinded me. Steve seems good but very fatigued. Work is slow and he is stressed. He's still waiting for his Nov appt to follow up with the dr about his red patches and he doesn't want me following him around with the flash light looking in his throat. I treasure everyday we have together. And I must say for everything he's been thru he does live a qaulity whole life and we are great full. I will update the post once he follows up with the rad dr. Thanks for listening. Oh and his chest ct scan was good.
