Hi I just wanted to give you hope. My brother was diagnosed in 2012 with stage 4 tongue cancer. He did 39 radiation treatments and chemo. He was a very strong man inside and out and he beat the cancer. He fell 2 years later and hit his head in socks on Italian tile and it killed him. Not cancer related. He would want me to share his story wherever it could give hope. I hope this helps you. God bless!!
