Hi

my dad has a tumour which impacts oesophagus, had to have a tracheostomy etc.  he was due to start radiotherapy after two rounds of chemo but CT scan when fitting radiotherapy mask shows tumour larger than they thought and lymph node may be impacted.  So radiotherapy delayed whilst new scans, to see if spread and new plan.  I’m devastated but have no idea what it all means.  Anyone had experience of radiotherapy being delayed like this?

  • I'm sorry to hear your story. I'm afraid I can't help but wanted you to know that I am listening to what you are saying. I'm pretty sure that whatever the reason for the delay it will be for your dad's best.

    Keep your chin up and kept posting. All my best to your dad.
