My prayers go out to you. Hang in there. God is always beside us through thick and thin. My husband has a submandibular mass on the rt. side of the neck by the tonsils and lymph nodes about the size of a golf ball. The left side is smaller. The doctors just got through putting a feeding tube to the stomach and a port. The port is for chemo and the feeding tube will be when the doctor starts radiation on him since his throat will be sore and tender. We are looking at 7 to 11 months of this plus he is diabetic on top of this. Please stay in touch with me on how you are doing. We are scared just like you, but please remember the Lord your God is with all of us. Due to where my husband's cancer is, he will have to have all his teeth pulled. He has wonderful teeth but they can be replaced. Is the radiation you are taking like an x-ray? Also I would like to mention to you to get a gallon of Aloe Vera juice at Wal Mart and drink about a half cup a day. It is very healing to the body. It does not taste bad or anything. My step dad took it faithfully and did not have to have colon surgery due to this. I have my husband taking it. Best of luck to you and May God Richly Bless You. You are in my prayers.
