Hi Michael,
I am appalled to hear that the surgeon at Stanford did not get all the cancer. Did he give a reason? Did he tell you this was a possibility going into surgery?

Also, you said some of the doctors you saw at Anderson and Sloan said you should not have had surgery. Were these surgeons or ROs? Did they give you a reason?

I find it very interesting that they are now doing trials with Erbitux alone. Back in 2001 when I had cancer the second time, the only trail available for me was with chemo and rad. Since back then, you couldn't have any more rad., I had no alternative but surgery.

Hope your mouth isn't hurting too badly today from tooth extractions. Make your decision soon and get your treatment started ASAP, especially now that you know they didn't get it all.

Take care,
Eileen
