"Sunburned" Tongue
Well, getting this run of radiation for the tumor in my mouth has caused "tongue sunburn". Kinda unpleasant, but if it works... Monday is the last day for radiation, and sometime the middle of August, I'm going to finish this run of chemo and get a scan. MRI? CT? PET? Don't know yet. --Jerry

Eating and air pockets in the gastric tube?
I'm still trying to figure out my new normal. I'm 8 weeks out from my surgery and 2 weeks of eating soft foods moving into expanding what I am eating. I've started eating a sandwich on toasted bread for lunch. I've noticed the last couple days when i was eating that sandwich I start feeling pressure in the upper chest like…

Good scan
Hi everyone, I wanted to post some good news. Jeff just had his latest ct scan, he is 10 months out from surgery. He is NED!!! He has a nodule in his lung that they are monitoring. It has had no change in 6 months, and they are now fairly sure it is a burst airway, probably from a bout of pneumonia. We know Jeff is very…

Back from Mayo yesterday after Ivor-Lewis
I'm feeling amazingly good after surgery. Dr. Deschamps in Rochestor MN is an awesome doctor. They found one lymph node positive, and removed all of them, so I will be getting one more round of chemo in a month. Hopefully I will survive this. It's been a hurting ordeal, but I wasn't put in ICU afterwards, just recovery for…

Just Diagnosed

He has been diagnosed with T3N(0,1)M0...I think that is right. Thankfully, he can still eat but it has been challenging. They say that will…

A few thoughts...
I was diagnosed 10 years ago this October with Hodgkins lymphoma. I don't even remember what stage, I think it was II, but I was very fortunate; I got the "good" kind of cancer. After 4 rounds of chemo, and a month of radiation,I was cured. Truly cured. I feel so blessed. Ten years later, the love of my life, someone who…
