Hi Everyone -

First time here. Dad was just dx yesterday with oral cancer. Hasn't been given a stage yet. I'm not feeling hopeful. Complained of an earache since November. Swelling on the neck. Sore throat...two sores...back of tongue and tonsil.

Nasal scope today. PET scan and MRI next week. Two weeks of radiation at twice a day.

This seems surreal. I'm so sad. I love my Dad so much. I love his stories...his intelligence...he's my Dad. He can't be sick.

It's encouraging to read the entries. I'll definitely be back.

Thank you,
Laurie
