Weclome. A lot depends upon your husband and his attitude. You must give him the support he needs. he may feel guilty, he may not. You must be there for him. He will have some rough times. He has to be able to lean on you. I'm not sure what else to say , but you have to be very strong and resolute. One day at a time is an old adage, but rreally does apply here. With the treatment today, the two of you can beat this. A lot of people on this site have posted from Minneapolis. I assume your husband is in good hands.
SCC, base of tongue, 2 lymph nodes, stage 3/4. 35 X's IMRT radiation, chemo: Cisplatin x 2, 5FU x2, & Taxol x2. Hooray, after 3 years I'm in still in remission.
