Thanks Sandy, I appreciate your kind words. ((hugs)) back at you!!


So far the skin graft is looking good. The wound on my hip is still tender. (hmmm any wonder, surgery was less than a week a go)

Only time will tell how much the tongue flap skin graft surgery has helped. If it creates a gutter, improves the flap mobility or some how helps me control saliva, it will be well worth it.

My lower face along with my rebuilt jaw structure can�t be changed or improved since the mandible reconstruction due to ORN in 2008. As a result of that surgery, I have to do what ever it takes to improve mobility and other issues with what�s left in my mouth/oral cavity. Unfortunately, I don�t have many options available to improve my situation. Fingers crossed....I will take what ever I can - a small improvement is better than nothing!!
