Thank you all. I know we will get through this although it will be a long hardroad. His cancer is SCC in the floor of mouth. He will obviously have the cancer removed and part of his tongue. From the scans it doesn't appear to be in the jaw bone. Although, we know there is a chance it could be. They will also be removing the lymphnodes and test them. There is no obvious cancer there either. The doctors will decide on radiation and chemo after surgery. I have faith and confidence in the doctors. It's the long road to recovery that scares me. Thank you all again for the warm welcome.
