First I need to apologize..I typed Blood instead of Bloop in a previous post on this thread. I didn't catch it so I'm sorry. I really did not mean to call anyone Blood. That said...Bloop, you sound like a very strong person. I love your attitude that you can handle the PEG. I agree...the mask sounds scary. I have not needed radiation so I can't give any insight, I wish I could. You have a lot of support here though and hopefully that helps.

BJ...welcome to OCF. 11 surgeries is terrible. My cancer was on my tongue also and I've had 4 partial glossectomies and man..they do hurt!! I'm so sorry to hear your cancer is back. You have come to the right place to support. There are some wonderful people here. You may want to start your own thread so all the comments will be focused on you. You may want to start one in the Introduce Yourself section. I look forward to getting to know you and supporting you through this hard time.
