I have a post going under the friends tab that lists OCF members and their real names who are on FB. If you would like to be added to the list, let me know. I dont add anyone unless they request to be put on our list.
You will find tons of info here. There is alot of support for people going thru treatments. Feel free to ask questions and to search for info. The main pages have tons of info there too.
My advice would be to eat what you can now. Enjoy those steaks, ribs, mexican foods now. Your sense of taste will change and your mouth will probably get sore. This way you will have no regrets. Best of luck with your treatments.
