Deb, Thanks for your quick response. I noticed that they gave Bill Taxol along with the cisplatin. Maybe that's why his dose ended up being less then Richard's will be. Cisplatin is the only chemo drug he's taking. I guess the treatment for everyone is different depending on each case. The tumor is very small, but a node is involved. It's encouraging because we can feel the node changing and getting smaller. Only time will tell how things will work out. It sounds like your Bill is doing great now. Thanks, Geri
