My husband, 56 yrs old, was diagnosed with Stage 3 tongue cancer from
HPV (after having to get a trach tube just so they could get the biopsy) in December. It's been a long and hard road for him with 3 intense rounds of chemo that started in January and now he's in his final 11 days of radiation with weekly cisplatin chemo. He has his moments where he wants to give up and no longer wants to do the treatment. To me, he's so close to being done but I understand his thoughts and fears. I imagine most cancer patients have these thoughts? I just want to get him through these final days, but I get so worried when I see him suffering from the burning of the throat after vomiting and the excessive saliva. I came on here to see if I could get any help or suggestions.
