Hi Frances:

I've been following your posts and am sorry to hear your situation and options have changed. My partner Dave had a radical neck dissection on one side after discovery of a tonsillar tumor and one lymph node in August, 2003. He also had post-op radiation but no chemo.

Funny you get to know people here by their medical diagnoses first! Anyway, there is hope and life after treatment for oral cancer and Dave's first day back to work post-treatment is TODAY!

Let me chime in to wish you our best and we are pulling for you!

Kim & Dave
