OT -- Stage III Cancer
Got the news late last week that my nasopharyngeal cancer is considered Stage III -- large tumor in the head and cancer cells have migrated south to the lymph glands on both sides of my neck. Lungs are clear.
I am preparing for a 7-week course of chemo-radiation: concurrent chemo and radiation treatment. After that I have 3 more months of adjutant chemo, which is done in-hospital for a 5-day stretch every month or so.
Still shooting. On Saturday I shot a league course at an indoor range and on Sunday went cowboy shooting with the Hole in the Boot Gang in Quinton, NJ. Wonderful anti-cancer prescription.

We are right there with you. Our four year old is also stage three, and faces a similar regimen. We started his first cycle on Wednesday night.
We will keep you and your family in our thoughts as we all progress through these ordeals, and I look forward to exchanging notes that you and he are both cancer free in short order.
