Today we went to see the throat therapist and things went very well. Dad can now eat soft and puried foods. He can also drink liquids through a straw. Then we went to Dr. Sharma and were told that the path report came back from the liphnodes that were taken and there were ne signs of the cancer. So this is great news and means that he will only have to have radiation and not chemo. We are sad that he does have to have the radiation but we know that it is a safety precaution so the cancer will have a lesser chance of comming back. He is doing good. It was a looooonnnngggg ride home but we made it. Thank you for all of your love and support. Love Deidra

Marty, This is VERY good news that the cancer wasn't in the lymph nodes!!! Great that you don't need Chemo!!!! Great that you get to sip down some food. Did the stitches and the feeding tube get removed. Things are going along better than anticipated (a perspective from someone who isn't living the PAIN!) We love you. Hugs and prayers, SunDee

We are so very happy to hear the great news that came back from the reports. What I want to know Marty is how did that Coke taste? Or was it a Pepsi? Keep resting and getting better.
