Suzanne, thank you for the information about the blogs. I will spend some time exploring those soon.

Liz, thank you for the help finding the forum posts by Paul R. I have read through that and find so many helpful suggestions.

Thankfully, Mom's tongue has not been effected by her recurrences. Her original tumor on her tongue was removed and she has had no other problems with her tongue. Her present tumor is in her neck (lymph node). My mother has required 24/7 care since January of this year due to falling and not being stable on her feet. She uses a walker, has recently been diagnosed with dementia, and has had rheumatoid arthritis for over 40 years. My brother, sister-in-law, sons, husband, and I take turns staying with her. So I know our situation is much different than most others here. But there is so much information and so many wonderful suggestions here that I know there is much I can learn from everyone. Thank you for sharing this with me.
