Hello Marie-lyne

Welcome to another member from down-under. I am sure that you and your husband will find answers to many of your questions here as treatment progresses. Others will also benefit from your questions and the answers, so ask away.

Cancer patients seem to react very differently to similar treatments I have learned. I would imagine that a PEG tube will help David since he has tongue cancer and will undergo chemo. However he can always ask for it later on if it is needed.

I had tonsil cancer, radiation both sides and throat but no chemo. I didn't use a feeding tube and lost lots of weight.

For the record, 3 yrs since diagnosis and I am so well I can't believe it. I didn't believe it was possible back then. So stick with it and know that you will both get there.

Love and light from Helen
