We are in Victoria, BC and there is a team approach. ENT Cancer Surgeon, Radiology Oncologist, Radiologist, Pathologist.. etc. I believe we are in the right place. Surgery has not been mentioned, and it makes sense that if it is HPV16 caused, that radiation is the preferred treatment. He has no other symptoms and does not have risk factors, ie, doesn’t smoke, drinks seldom, no other underlying health problems. I appears we have caught it early. He has a swollen lymph node. The tonsil tumor is 1.8 so is small.. he will find out more after the needle biopsy. Treatment to start within 24 days of biopsy. It’s been a whirlwind of emotion and information. I am preparing myself with knowledge and trying to stay organized and focused to keep me from breaking down. My big fear is that COVID is circulating like crazy, and we both have managed to avoid it, and we certainly cannot afford to get it now. Masking up and avoiding crowds. He is currently out fishing on the west coast with a friend.. doing what he loves to do. We plan on taking some time during the lapse time to enjoy life and try to nourish our bodies and mind as much as we can. He isn’t the information person, and I will share this closer to the time of his treatment so he isn’t taken by surprise. Until then, we will just pray for the best outcomes possible. Health blessings to you. Thank you for responding.
