Welcom, and I'm really sorry you had to come looking for us. Where does your Mom have cancer exactly? Head and neck cancers cover a significant number of locations; tongue, roof of the mouth, floor of the mouth, jaw, etc.

It helps all of us here to know what her diagnosis is, so that we can help you and her make this journey that we've been through before.

It is a battle, and it's not an easy one. Treatment is physically very tough, and emotions are just as difficult to manage as the discomfort is. Please stick around; we can help you both make it through.
