in Head and Neck Cancer #1

Hello all,

i hope everyone is having a good summer. It's muggy here and we've had record flooding. But otherwise it's been a great summer. We visited my MIL in Florida in June, had my nieces wedding in July and the new job starts soon. We've been busy! 

 My husbands been doing really well. His CT scan was great and the two follow up visits have been wonderful as well.  The big scan is on Tuesday. Of course I am  nervous.  Anytime he coughs (which isn't much) or clears his throat I freak out.  I feel like we will get good news but it's still so nerve racking.  ive just been trying to send out positive vibes and prayers. I'd welcome extras as well :) 

I will keep you all updated.

    End of August fornus

    My husband will have his CT scan at the end of August.  They don't to follow up PET unless they are suspicious.  His first check up went well and he is feeling pretty good.  Jaw is a bit tight and just now nothing dry mouth.  But, still eating and drinking like normal.
