Hi Diane. Sorry to read this. I was three months from diagnosis to treatment. What do his doctors say his outlook is? What have they told you?
Has treatment been planned but not yet started?

Hi Diane528

I know how scary this must be for you and your partner as I am currently waiting for treatment to start I started in February after becoming really ill on holiday and had been to my GO 3 times before luckily speaking to my husband ENT in July whose colleague recently diagnosed Tonsil Cancer plus 3 lymphs in neck now spread to base of tongue and throat..

Speak to your partners ENT or Oncologist to find out what the diagnosis and subsequent treatment plan is.

Its terrifying for you both…. but stay hopeful !
