Been a long time, it seems...

Hi All! Been a few years. I had the cancer on my left tonsil in 2011. Did the feeding tube, 35 rad... Then in May 2013, during the night had a horrendous coughing spell. I thought it was due to allergies/whatnot. But 2 lumps formed on my neck..had bi-opsy. Cancer. My PET from 2011 was completely clear, I mentioned this on this forum 'back in the day'.  In May 2013 I was diagnosed with the ole SOB..June 11 had a Radical Neck Dissection. Interoperative radiation. So here I am back again with a positive self, albeit a tad painful at times.

Enough about me...how are ya'll?!!!!! I have not forgotten you all that helped me very much through this. Have not nor will not stop praying for all of you.

Love,

Robin

    long time

    Hi Robin,

    Welcome back, I am sorry for your second tangle with the SOB.

    I went back and read your first post.  I saw many of your H&N friends are still dropping by on occasion. Based on your first post, how did your taste buds make out and I can see that you are still having your mettle tested.

    Good luck on all future scans.

    Matt
