Please do not give up hope, sounds like your husband still has a few options available. It's good that he kept the cancer at bay after the surgery in 2005. My sister has been fighting this cancer for 2 years, 4 surgeries and the cancer kept spreading to another site, she just completed 35 IMRT treatments and 7 rounds of cisplatin. She is improving every day, gaining strength and looking forward to life. Seems they found this tumor early and treatment will begin shortly, I wish the best to you both. The information on this site, now that he will be experiencing chemo and radiation is so informative, I wished we had known about this earlier during my sister's treatment. Good luck and always have hope.
