Hi folks. I'm scared in Virginia! I'm 66 (turning 67 in early October) I'm beginning my radiation for base of tongue cancer on Tuesday at Johns Hopkins in Baltimore, Md. I would be most appreciative of any helpful words, thoughts or bible verses! I've completed 2 rounds of chemo and will have just the cisplatin once a week along with radiation. Actually the chemo will be on 2 weeks off one week thoughout the radiation. Radiation will be 7 weeks. I'm T4N1Mo. (not sure where to put that so it goes at the bottom like others.)
