When my dr. approched my wife and I about this and he explained the study, he gave no promises of easy cure. I am still if I remember correctly a t2n2bmo and there are some risk. I was just wondering if any body else had been approached about this study. To Stoj and JAM I have read several of your postings and it seems you two are very active in this forum. I hope I can come here with questions or thoughts that we don't ask the drs. and I would love to find the support for my family as well as my wife here. From everything I have seen this is a pretty cool gig and I (we) would really like to be a part of it.To Emagster, I was set up for a PEG on 11-20 but this study prohibits the use of one. From everthing I have learned about it it seems like a GREAT back-up because of what the rad treatments will do to your throat. Weather or not you will be able to make the treatments email me and we can compare notes and talk about what is going on. You can make it through this because GOD won't put anymore on us than we can handle. From what I have seen here there is a boat load of support for just about any situation.
