It's been a long while since I posted here.

My husband was diagnosed in 2002, stage III, right tonsil with floor of mouth.....

It was inoperable,....we chose rad and chemo.

First follow-up detected a mass in the right upper quadrant of the right lung. Had it removed.

He was an alcoholic and massive smoker. Brian, along with many others will remember my many questions of concern.

He gave the alcohol up (still working on the nicotine), but, my point being, and I swear I have one...

PLEASE don't look at the statistics. I did, and it got me nowhere.

If I had put my faith in the numbers, my husband wouldn't be here at all.

Today, he is a vibrant, wonderful father. More....much more....than he was before.

Numbers are just that. Science can never explain it all. I've been there and come out. Please don't put all your faith in the statistics.
