ringing the bell
#33 of 33 radiations and #7 of 7 chemos completed.
Initial diagnosis was made by my son, a resident in Emergency Medicine, investigating a cough. Time from initial diagnosis to final treatment was 9 weeks. Stage III N0 M0 HPV on my right tonsil.
I had read a variety of horror stories about Kaiser-Permanete. I experienced absolutely nothing like that. Both my oncolos, Dr Scott Kono for chemo, and Dr Mark Edson for rad were perfection. Dr Edson is mid 30s and just completed a fellowship in Head and Neck cancer at M D Anderson. i received my treatment at KP-Lonetree and Skyridge Cancer Center, Lonetree Colorado.
So, the next phase starts.
