  • I am glad to hear that you are doing ok. May I ask how long you are NED? My wife is fighting melanoma atm. You were lucky to be in the 50%, hopefully she will be there also

  • Treatments finished in late March. Just had neck scan results today and it showed everything clear. According to the Dr's at the Mayo Clinic my odds of a relapse went from 50/50 without radiation and chemo to 90/10 with. Considering the Mayo is one of the top 3 cancer center in the world and my Dr is 1 of 2 in the country qualified to use the laser for my throat I am feeling pretty confident! Supposedly chemo made the radiation more effective

    Good Luck to you and your wife, it's tough

  • There is no guarantee that the radiation will help anything. The side effects of radiation can be quite devastating for a treatment that has a 50/50 success rate

  • OK Dr. but after going thru it and being 100% cancer free I am pretty confident it helped!

  • Or perhaps a retard that wants to stay alive?

see all

  • Those who say others hasn´t been through what you and I have. To get to know that you have cancer changes your life for ever. That is true, absolutely true! But nowadays I really hope you´re doing fine!!!!

  • I hope you are fully recovered and feeling well. I went through radiotherapy this spring and had to put that mask on for 34 times but it didn´t affect me at all. I was also lucky to be treated with the new Rapid Arc and it was great. Hardly 3 minutes on that table and the mask is at home as a "souvenir"!!! And what wouldn´t you do to survive? Everything actually.

  • I had to have that same mask put on me 31 times and for me it was hell. All the best to you and i hope u get cured from this horrible cruel disease

  • newsgespidey should be banned what an A HOLE!!! even as a jerk that you are I hope you do not get caner.

    MATT keep the faith, it works, I have cancer for 5 years Head and neck, radiation 4 times. 5 times chemo and 5 operations. I still walk talk and eat(thru a tube ) Life is worth it. God bless you and you your family

  • They let me take it home. Just ask nicely.

  • Can you keep the mask?

  • I left you a comment on another vid with the radiation mask. Same comment goes to you again & then some since you added a slur to your comment onto this one. If your wife is fighting cancer too then I sure hope that you are trying to be compassionate with her & not act like you are on here.
