Lung Cancer
If they’ve already removed the tonsils and they aren’t undergoing radiation etc, then he has a 90% chance of survival, the fact that he is strong most definatley helps and he will most likley get through!
Don’t worry and be strong! Hope the best for you and your Dad!
Lung Cancer
Is it a lymphoma or a squamous cell carcinoma Nick? The very best thing is to go with your dad when he sees his doctors to hear the explanations about the specific type of malignancy that this may be – - and of course the stage of the disease.
To estimate percentages we need to know the type and stage of the malignancy – - but these are details his doctors know best.
