and is still in Baptist Hospital, Winston-Salem, NC. He has done amazingly well and I am so proud of him! The first few days were hell for him. As of today, the NG tube has been removed and he tolerated clear liquids for the first time this morning...trach has been removed...all drainage tubes removed, and he's getting around with a walker! We expect that he will be discharged on Mon or Tues! I can't praise the doctors (and God) enough...Buzz had bilateral resection, and we have only been told that nodes on both sides were cancerous...NOT told how many, but he will have chemo/radiation...It is Dr. Sullivan's policy not to discuss prognosis until discharge, so no more info at this time. THANKS to all of you for your prayers..and thanks to OCF for all the useful information!
