Hi Jingle Bell:
Sorry that you had to join our group, but welcome to you and your husband. You will hear from the most knowledgable people in the oral cancer arena right here on this Forum, so you came to the right place. I don't have any experience with the type cancer hubby has, but I've read other member's comments and I'm sure you'll be getting a lot of responses soon. Just wanted to welcome you and my thoughts and prayers are with you both.
