I found this board in a specific look for survivors of oral cancer. After I was diagnosed, all I found was the normal stuff on the internet and I felt like I was doomed.

Then I found this site and I realized that i had a fighting chance. I also learned a whole lot about what was coming.

This site made me a better patient. Thanks for sharing your story. I'm six months out from treatment and can only imagine eight years! My son will be 21 and that will be something to see.
