Diagnosis

Ken was diagnosed on December 30th, 2010, with squamous cell carcinoma in one tonsil and the lymph node on the left side of his neck. Because surgery in this area would permanently affect the functionality of his mouth and voice, the initial course of treatment will be a combination of chemotherapy and radiation. Additional information on this type of cancer can be found here, although when reading it is important to note that Ken has never drank heavily or smoked. He is being treated at the Tri-Cities Cancer Center.
