Hi Sue

I totally empathise with what you are going through. I had a rescetion of my right buccal mucosa in Sept with a free flap from my arm. The operation went really well and I recovered very quickly. Unfortunately, the dreaded SCC came back in my neck after only a few months and I have just undergone another neck dissection, this time a modified radical and have only just got home from hospital.

Next on my cards is rads and chemo..pretty nervous about it all. I am just trying to live day by day and remain optimistic about the future. I have to admit, I was devastated with my reccurence but the pople on OCF and the Perth Head and neck Cancer support group have been wonderful.

I wish you all the very best and please hang in there. So many of us are going through this journey even on opposite ends of the world. Prayers and hugs

Liza
