    NED
    That's wonderful news Sonja! Yesterday, Thanksgiving Day the 22nd, was my 21st anniversary of NED and I am going to go for 21 more years! I wish you and all our brothers and sisters the same blessing that I have received. All the best, josh r.

    Cyber Knife
    I was offered Cyber Knife after my doc threw his hands up in there air.

    The C started in my mouth (surgery 1/11) then to my neck (another surgery 5/11 and then chemo and rad summer). Yet, it still spread to my right lung Nov. 2011 (surgery followed by chemo #2). Then it showed up in my left lung (8mm)this past July. That's when the doc threw his arms up. He didn't want me back on chemo in July after just finished in March for the second time. Ablation was another option that my biopsy doc gave me, where they just laser it off, but my onc. wanted me to do Cyber Knife instead.

    I had Cyber Knife at St. Joe's in St. Paul, MN with Dr. Kim and Dr. Fink. The staff was AMAZING and I go for a follow up there in a few weeks. Here's their site: http://www.healtheast.org/cyberknife-center.html

    Best to you!

    Thank you Sonja ......
    Keep us posted ....and again, glad you are doing well and got that NED. I'm going to print this and give it to a doctor who actually told my wife "once it goes to the lungs, that's it" (and trust me, half the stuff he says does not jive with what most in his profession say) ...you are proof that is not true and my wife will be delighted to see your posts :)

    I'm glad you share your experiences.
