Keep positive Nate!!! Sores are normal like they said, and with radiation, not to scare you but you may get more. RINSE your mouth like they say with the salt and baking soda solution it does help!! Follow all dr's instructions! Keep you head up, get out with friends and loved ones keep as busy as you can DO NOT sit alone and think, it only will make you more depressed. Keep your mind busy, read, watch mindless TV :)play video games or board games or card games. Keep busy! If you have a pet, play with it just stay busy. You will make it thru this, but there will be unbearable days. Sleep. Rest your body. And for sure is eat! If you can't please drink something like Ensure or Boost. Your body needs nutrition to help with the healing. And keep talking to us here and I love watching your videos, I missed it. I also wish I could give you a big hug, CYH(consider yourself hugged! :))
