About to start radiation therapy for inoperable SCC of the palate. I think.

14. You are an inspiration!

Thanks for all your help! My story got very interesting all of a sudden. A friend at the NIH did an extensive research query on proton therapy and sent several thousand pages of studies on the use of this dramatically improved radiation technique for many cancers! Guess why every doctor in every state isn’t using it? Politics and greed.

Im having a real quality PEG put in next week the right way - endoscopically. Then I’m having five weeks of proton therapy in New Jersey. Depression is always an issue when you realize that people that don’t vote in every election have caused our current situation, and that every day we don’t fight for those that are disabled or chronically ill or working sick and help them to vote everyone becomes sicker!

But the cancer in our Democracy grows. Always bring as many friends to whatever medical appointment you ever go to and let staff know you have friends and advocates. That care about you. And that vote! Thanks Alfredo and everyone else that answered. We should start a proton therapy and online radiation group here that helps people advocate as well, no? Much love to all!
