Hi all 
I was diagnosed with T2N1M0 SSC Right floor of mouth & right side of tongue in October. My team decided that i would not be able to get through the operation my consultant wanted to carry out due to lung issues i had during our very first lock down.
The only treatment available to me is two weeks of Radiotherapy, i completed my first week and saw my Oncologist yesterday, he has asked me to decide i if i want to carry on and have the second week. I don't know if i am going to continue with it yet.
When i had the meeting with my team and was told i would only be having the Rt i knew what this meant, but talking with my Oncologist yesterday it has really hit home now that i'm not going to be coming through this.
My family and friends know i have this cancer but are unaware of the eventual outcome. After yesterday i was going to tell them in new year 'the full story'. But my sister called to see how i got on and ended up having to tell her and got the usual couple of minutes silence, she asked 'how long' so managed to pass it off as he couldn't say, it could be years, it's a case of how longs a piece of string which was true.
I am dreading telling my 26yr old son as we are very close.
