He called right when I was about to call him all excited about a certain co-sleeper. He's a mess but he's holding it together. He hasn't dealt with anything like this since his sister died almost 20 years ago. Thanks, Jessee.

a million hugs for you Rebecca I feel so bad that you're going through this. I went through something very similar when the Dr's found my DH had a "C" tumor 2 yrs ago....now 2 yrs later he's FINE....no more C. (I'm like you I dont like typing the word either)You're an amazingly strong woman and although I know how tough this is - you're being such a wonderful supportive wife....and thats exactly what your DH needs right now.
ETA: please feel free to FM me ANYTIME with any questions

Re: UPDATE -- How much stress am I expected to manage before I implode? A not really parenting related pity-party vent of sorts...
I just googled it too and it does look like it you caught it early enough it is very treatable.
DIAGNOSIS AND TREATMENT
Before SCC can be treated, the diagnosis must be confirmed with a biopsy. This simple procedure can be performed in the office and involves removing a small amount of tissue so that it can be examined under a microscope. If the diagnosis is SCC, a variety of surgical and non-surgical treatment options are available. The dermatologist will choose an appropriate treatment after considering the location of the tumor, size, microscopic characteristics, health of the patient, and other factors.
Most treatment options are relatively minor, office-based procedures that require only local anesthesia.
These include:
*
SIMPLE SURGICAL EXCISION
Removes the cancer and some of the surrounding healthy tissue. The removed specimen is examined under a microscope to determine if all of the skin cancer has been removed.
*
MOHS MICROGRAPHIC SURGERY
Performed by a specially trained dermatologic surgeon, Mohs allows the surgeon to spare as much normal skin as possible while simultaneously removing the cancer.
*
ELECTRODESICCATION AND CURETTAGE
Removes the cancerous tumor by scraping (curetting) it off. The base of the tumor is burned (cauterized) with an electric needle (electrodesiccation).
*
CRYOSURGERY
Removes the tumor by freezing it with liquid nitrogen.
*
RADIATION THERAPY
Damages or kills the cancerous cells with high-energy x-rays, which also help to prevent continued growth.
*
TOPICAL THERAPY
Medications such as imiquimod and 5-fluorouracil can be applied at home to treat the cancer.

Crashing here, but I want to let you know that I had squamous cell removed from my leg two years ago with MOHS surgery and everything has been clear since.
Praying for you and your family.
