ROLL CALL 2013---CLOSED AS OF 01/12/2014. New list to be posted

DaveJay, Geneva, Switzerland.  DX Nov 2013.  Lingual Tonsil, spread to left lymph node.  Surgery to neck Dec 2013, currently recovering from that.  Radiation and Chemo scheduled to begin in Jan 2014.   Still very new to all this.

Diagnosed with cancer in the right Tonsil on April 1st 2013, had tonsillectomy, 7 chemo (Erbitux) and 34 radiations that finished on 6/11/13.   I've had one clean PETScan and right before Christmas I got the results on my CatScan (NED) and getting back to my new normal.   Just dealing with the recurring Thrush and a few side effects from radiation but other than that doing great!

 Here's to a very Happy and very Healthy 2014!
