Just had my new mask made, CT scan to plan the attack and now will begin 36 IMRT treatments to the area where my parotid gland once resided. Also my right neck area where I had radical neck disection and right tonsil surgical bed. Should be running the test run this week and will begin shortly afterward. I hate this disease, it never seems to give a break. Although I do not look forward to this time around, I am determined to beat it back and live by my terms and not its.
