It seems that the cancer is there in that spot. Dr. Willis called Dad this evening with the results. It showed that the area had squamous cells but "it has not invaded the muscle or the blood vessels". I am going to assume this is good news about those cells. Since the CT scan showed "dying cancer cells" in nodes on left neck, we are left with the question, "Are these new or are they dying?" Hmmmm... Dr. Willis conversed with Dr. Holmes and brought him up to date on everything since April of last year. He (Dr. Holmes) is going to call Dr. Spencer (radiologist) at UAB and talk to her himself to see exactly what areas she treated. He wants to know the specifics about the radiation treatment before he decides anything about what to do with the bad teeth and/or the spot that is still left after radiation. Dr. Holmes said he would call Dad when he has talked with Dr. Spencer. It could be as late as Monday before he gets her, so I will post AS SOON as we here anything!
Love,
Michelle
