Cancer Survivors Network

I'm new here --but not new to cancer. I had a rhinectomy (loss of my nose) to cancer almost 5 years---yes--my 5 year survivor date is in October of 2003). I see VERY little on cancer in the nose and loss of the nose. My cancer started out as basal (sp) cell---I had 8 surgeries to remove a very agressive basal cell (don't let ANYONE tell you skin cancer isn't agressive!!) which also developed into squamous. Before they took my nose (I went to 5 different cancer centers for advice) I had a forehead flap done and had gone thru 30+ radiation treatments....the cancer still came back.
Anyway--I have a great prosthesis team up at UCLA MEdical in Los Angeles--as well as a great surgical team.
I'm not sure how often I'll check in here....but my email address is sblue@pacbell.net.
Blessings to all,
Steve
