Glen is asking the question that NEEDS to be asked. I'm, as he says, a little fried also. I had micro mets to one node, top of the chain, but I had a full course of Radiation and it wasn't a decision to make...........my doctors gave no choice. Knowing what I know from this board, I wouldn't think of passing by radiation if I had nodal involvment.

SCC Left Mandible. Jaw replaced with bone from leg. Neck disection, 37 radiation treatments. Recurrence 8-28-07, stage 2, tongue. One third of tongue removed 10-4-07. 5-23-08 chemo started for tumor behind swallowing passage, Our good friend and much loved OCF member Minnie has been lost to the disease (RIP 10-29-08). We will all miss her greatly.
