Sandra,

I have just joined the forum because my mother also is being treated for oral cancer and is scheduled for surgery July 10th. At this point the surgeon is planning to remove the lumph nodes on the right side of her neck, part of her mandible, cheek and tissue from the floor of her mouth. Probably they will need to do a bone and skin graft from either her hip or her lower leg. She is almost 81 years old and has already had surgery, chemotherapy and radiation, so I am very interested in how your mother is doing. My thoughts and prayers are with her as she recovers from her surgery.
