throat cancer

by worrieddaughter4, Feb 12, 2008 11:49AM
My dad has been fighting throat cancer for the last year or so and has been told he has 6 months.  He has been very strong and we are still praying for God to work his magic.  Until then my question is he has been swelling in his face and has been taking a steroid to help with the swelling, but this past week it has gotten worse.  Would the cancer cause his face to swell including his lips and nose?  He goes to a VA hospital and I sometimes worry they have given up when we haven't. He does swell sometimes in other places like hands and feet, but mostly in his face. Thanks
