Dear WZ
Thanks for prompt reply.Guess that the tumour has invaded local structures and has become entangled in the carotid etc. I will check this out with the Radiologist tomorrow. I was pencilled in for surgery tomorrow and I guess that they would have gone ahead if they felt it appropriate. They have told me that I have a life threatening situation and the only viable option for me is to recieve carboplatin and 5FU along side radical radiotherapy. I believe these guys are really on my side, I have to! What is your treatment plan? Sounds like us young un's have to play with the bigger girls and boys eh?
Best wishes Frances and my sister Meryl
