had surgery monday. a total glossectomy,bilateral neck disection. only 1 bad node. the tumor was so big that radiation and chemo would not have treated it.
at this point my face and neck are very much swelled. i may be stuck with the "tempoary trach" forever. im not real happy about that.
on the plus side the drain tubes came out of my neck and leg. i can move around a little better now. maybe if i do more moving around it will help. really gotta get the swelling to go down over the weekend and then maybe the doctor will take out the trach.
