Very happy to find this Website. It is 2-l/2 years since dx., treatment. Our medical team was and still is terrific. It took almost a year plus to feel normal. Notice memory not what it could be, as well as fatigue. Husband had Stage IV nasopharyngeal CA., rare in Caucasian Americans. We felt we went thru treatment and recovery fairly well. The aftermath of coping was not realized until months after treatment. In the dark moments, as caregiver, I found very little support groups to talk over feelings and coping skills. Eventually, almost 1-l/2 years later, we found a hospital that had a group meeting, once a month, for people with head and neck cancer. This group helped my husband very much.
