Hello everyone, I'm new here. A fellow OC survivor told me about this site. I'm so glad you are here, I finally have someone to talk to! Thank you for being here. Carol

BTW I'll update my profile soon. I'm a survivor of stage 4 ssc of the right tonsil that had advanced to a lymph node. Like most of you, I went thru the treatment from hell and have lived to talk about it. I'm 3 1/2 years out of treatment. C.
