Welcome to OCF! Not sure if I missed something or not, where exactly is your cancer?

At this time anyone who offers to help you write down their name and number and let them know you will call them when the time comes. Having a newborn is alot of work and doing it while going thru treatments will be difficult. You will need help and I hope you will not be too proud to accept it.

Your very best option is to go to a top notch cancer center. Here is a list of the country's top treatment facilities for oral cancer.

Top Cancer Centers

Now is the time for you to eat all your favorites. Dont worry about gaining weight, eat everything now so you have no regrets. Your sense of taste will probably change for a while and swallowing may become difficult so eat now.

Best wishes!!!
