Hi everyone,

I am new here. My brother had cancer last year under his tongue. He was given radiation, and surgery. Now its back again...at the back left of his tongue. They cannot do radiation again...so they are doing a surgery. Its so upsetting...they will need to remove half or more of his tongue and the lower left jaw. He is very very upset about it.

I wish to know...how is the speech after this surgery? How long does it take to get the speech as normal as possible?

What can we do to make sure he doesn't ever get it again?

What can I do to help him emotionally?

Thank you so much...
