Hiya my name is Sabrina I am from the UK

my dad got diagnosed with throat cancer just before christmas and has been having radiotherapy and chemotherapy. He finished all his treatment 2 weeks ago and went back up yesterday for a follow up appointment to see what the outcome is.

I have only just spoken to him and as usual being my dad he doesnt like to say too much, but he did say he has to go back up in 3 weeks time for an operation to cut the lump out.

What will this involve? How do they do it? Also does this mean the cancer is not gone? Is it likely this will get rid of the cancer or is there still chances he will still have it after?

Any help or advice would be great

Thank you

Sabrina
