Father met with the surgeon this past week to discuss the surgery needed. Hes going to have a partial glossectomy. And he also wants to remove a few questionable lymph nodes in the neck just to be sure. He was told the surgery would take 8-10 hours. We looked at many surgeons and decided on one that came highly recommended for treating many with OC. He tandems with a Vascular surgeon.

Dad is freaked out of the surgery and is worried that by the time the surgery is performed (Approx. 3 weeks from now) that the cancer will spread.

We are trying to keep him bust and reassured its going ot be alright.
