Question 10

what is the life expectancy of someone who has metastatic squamous cell carcinoma?

Accepted Answer

It depends: A low-grade squamous cell carcinoma of the mouth metastatic to one neck lymph node may get a cure.  A low-grade lung cancer with bone metastases may kill in a few days by causing pneumonia, or be compatible with a few years' survival.  In real life, no physician says, "you have thus-and-so long to live".  I hope that you will cherish each day of life that you are given, living richly & loving well.
