The last time it was addressed was in 1971, a time of "hey let's cut it out and see if that works" long since past. The technology today is amazing. My radiation treatment starts in a few days and just the prep work has me bewildered. The PET scan, the mapping, the "mask" to keep me still during treatment, all amazing stuff. I started a blog about my <a href="http://www.mytonguecancer.com" rel="nofollow">Tongue Cancer</a> and will be posting every other day during this entire process. I got my feeding tube inserted a couple days ago and have pics uploaded. I may not agree with everything Mr. Kenedy has done but to spark interest on an overdue subject is OK in my book, go get 'um Ted!
