Thanks everyone for your prayers and support. What they did was remove the whole right side parotid gland. Not only were the lymph nodes positive but also a tumor within the gland itself. Once again it was Squamous cell carcinoma (SCC). Dr believes he got it all but I will get radiation after I heal to kill any cells he may have missed or spilled. Will have a full pathology report next Tuesday. The surgery went well. Went home next day. I will keep you updated, once again thanks for your support and prayers.

I am so glad that the surgery went well and the doctor feels confident. Also glad to hear that they are going to give you radiation as a precautionary measure -- never hurts to cover all the bases!

Now, get some rest and let your body recouperate!!

Bruce,

I am so glad the surgery went ok and that you came home so quickly. My prayers to you are for the radiation to kill everything that might have gotten away. I wish you the best, as always.
