John was supposed to get the feeding tube last week, but since his white blood count was so low the surgery was postponed. He is getting it inserted today.
Radiation will be over tomorrow. Within a couple weeks he should start getting over the radiation side effects. His neck should get better sooner than his nose because they didn't radiate his neck this week. They didn't radiate his neck the last week of treatment because on his second set of scans the tumors throughout his neck had shrunk enough that it wasn't necessary to radiate as many doses as his nose tumor.
His progress sounds amazing!
