My 56 Year Old Male Friend Is No Longer Reacting

My 56 year old male friend is no longer reacting to chemotherapy for lung cancer. He is being given morphine from Hospice at this point, but his only pain is a very swelled lymph node on the left front side of his neck. He has only treated locally in Warren, PA. and was informed the surgery to remove the lymph node was too risky because of the corotid artery and the possibility of losing function of his left arm. I believe he is ready to take that chance, but needs to find a surgeon willing to perform surgery. Can you advise? Thank you, Sincerely, John Geiger
