I'm saying a prayer for you. My husband was in the middle of chemo and radiation when they found more positive nodes in his neck and on his lung. The cancer on his lung was from the floor of his mouth which was the original site-so distant metastasis. After 2 months of Erbitux, they found the cancer in his chest had gotten worse and he had a recurrance on base of tongue. No more radiation can be done so now he has had 8 treatments of Taxotere. Tomorrow will be a PET to see if THIS has worked. So we are kind of where you are. Trying to make the best of it.
