Many thanks to all for the welcome, I will keep you updated on her treatment and I am sure I will have many questions.Brenda I will go to "my stuff" and see if I can give more info on her diagnosis, She did ask one of the many doctors that she is seeing what stage was it at and he told that they do not stage for head and neck cancer, but she has a meeting with chemo oncologist wed and she will ask him.
