There is a search function both here and also on the main pages. Even those of us who have had an easy time still have many struggles to overcome with battling oral cancer. Nobody ever gets away with having an easy time of it. Wishing you and your mother all the best. Patty, welcome to OCF as well. When beginning to post, its good to start your very own thread so we can better get to know you. A signature line is also very helpful. There is a swallowing study going on that you may want to take advantage of. There is also a list of easy to eat foods. I will post the links at the bottom .Best wishes with everything. http://oralcancersupport.org/forums/ubbthreads.php?ubb=showflat&Number=94621#Post94621http://oralcancersupport.org/forums/ubbthreads.php?ubb=showflat&Number=123344#Post123344
