Very cool. I, too, have just recuperated from throat cancer diagnosed last February. I got 7 weeks of radiation and 4 horrible, sickness inducing chemo treatments ending in June. Now, after losing 20 pounds I am healthy again with my doctor telling me that the cancer is gone and I can get on with my life again! I think it shows that modern medicine can cure some forms of cancer and that it is not the death sentence that it once was! Give my best wishes to your Dad and tell him to keep battling!
