Hi everyone, 

My brother in law was recently diagnosed with stage 4 cancer, based in his tongue but also spreading to both sides of his neck. He's still so young, only in his late 30s. He's currently undergoing both radio and chemotherapy but he has been really poorly and unable to eat or drink so has been in and out of hospital.

This is such a worrying time but then last week my mother in law went to the the doctors with ongoing earache and they have noticed she has a growth in her tonsil so we are now awaiting an ENT appointment for her too.

I'm so worried for both my mother and brother in law and I'm so worried about the outcome for them both. Not sure why I'm really posting I just need to vent really and also ask what my brother in laws chance of survival is? I just keep breaking down all the time.

Thanks for reading.
