Good luck with your upcoming surgery. Just to ease your mind, I have a friend who had half his tongue removed, he was eating soft meals 5/6 days post op and talking quite well. The only thing he had was a lisp!! Now 4 months later, you wouldn't even know he had anything done.
Wishing you all the very best
