Another change of plans! I did get us an appointment up at UW-Madison for another opinion. We met with a very skilled ENT Surgeon last week and decided that he was exactly what we needed. Ron is having a second salvage surgery on February 2. We have been told that this is a "last-ditch" effort, but we are focusing on the future. This Surgeon's plan sounded much better to both of us. It will be a lengthy procedure, with a two week hospital stay. The tumor is too large for the Cyberknife treatments. He will have some type of chemo again after the surgery. We appreciate all of your good thoughts and comments. Lori
