Hi Paul,

We have same cancer, but mine Relapsed-- I have had recurrences & Mets.

Starting today I have 3 surgeries This week !!
This afternoon my GI surgeon is trying to open ( for his 5th try)-- the Pinpoint obstruction in my lower esophagus, which was caused by radiation.

Then Thursday I am admitted to The Main OR, for Double surgery with my 2 Head & Neck oncology surgeons, to do surgery in my Hypopharynx ( a mass beside my Vocal cords )

And then my primary head & neck surgeon is Resecting this fast growing tumor in front of my mouth.... It's tripled in size since January when he first biopsied it.

If you look at my profile, you can read about my extensive surgical history.
I had Tracheostomy as well, and from all indications it looks like I will be dependent on another one in the future.

I am 75 pounds right now and 100% dependent on my G tube.

Need to go now , as I am due in surgery in a few hours..
They are admitting me to The Cancer Center hospital on Thursday after surgery, but I will most likely be back gone later tonight.
Only to start fasting all over again in Wednesday !!
