yeah, it kills me to not go out in the sun. I used to be a lifeguard and LOVED sitting out in the sun all afternoon. I haven't been swimming at all this summer (I was diagnosed at the end of April and finished treatment at the end of July). but I do plan on going as soon as my peg tube hole heals up (comes out Monday!). I would think as long as you aren't on the beach in the hot parts of the day and he covers up and wears super sunscreen you should be fine. My husband and I went to the aquarium one day on our vacation so you may be able to find something like that to do. Or maybe you could find a bed and breakfast that does massages and stuff! That could be relaxing!
Stephanie, 23, SCC on the right side of my tongue, surgery on 5-19-08, over half my tongue removed, free flap constructed from my forearm, bilateral neck dissection, one positive node. Radiation (32) and chemo (carboplatin) started on 6-16-08. Recurrence 4/09 in lungs.
**** Stephanie passed away 12.15.09.... RIP our dear friend****
