Since posting this. UPMC, Pittsburgh, Oct 2011 until Jan. I averaged about 2 to 3 surgeries a week there. w Can't have jaw made as bone is deteroriating steaily that is left in jaw. Mersa is to blame. Feeding tube . Had trach for 4mos. Got it out April.

I found out on New Years Day that my dad has throat cancer - he found out while having a routine tonsilectomy - there was more than 2 tonsils!
He had the surgery there and then followed by a week of chemo, and is now undergoing radiation therapy but is expecting a full recovery.
He never had MRI's or scans, either.
Good luck with your dad - this is a good group of people who will help you immensely.
Mum - sick as a dog, see her sig.
Dad - diagnosed with throat cancer late 2007.
