I just finished printing all the replies from my posts for him to read. Thank you!

His cancer is in the right side of the tongue and jaw now. I saw his new lump and blister on the back of his mouth, in the wisdome teeth area. The doctor confirmed it was the cancer.

Scary for all of us... But I can encourage him thanks to all of you.

I will start a new threat in the Currently in Treatment page. It is an advanced cancer, he will have a neck dissection, removal of as much as they need from his tongue, reconstruction using free tissue transfer and microvascular surgery, a mandibulectomy: immediate mandible reconstruction with fibula free flap, radio and chemo.

Please keep us in your prayers.

XOXO <3
