My name is Chelsey, I am 21 years old and was diagnosed with tongue cancer on December 3, 2009. I am a non-smoker, have the occasional drink, otherwise healthy 21 year old. I had a tumor removed from the side of my tongue on December 16, 2009 that was about 1.5 cm in diameter. Two days before Christmas i was told that the cancer had spread beyond the tumor removed and i would need to have futher treatment. 4 days ago which would be about 3 1/2 weeks post-op 2 small tumors have come back... I am going to the BC Cancer Agency in Vancouver on the 18th of January to see the oncologist and the head and neck surgeon. I have been told that i will need radiation and more surgery. I am so scared and i feel absolutly broken. I am the first person in my circle of friends and family to have cancer and i feel so alone....
