Hi Tracey,
My husband Reggie is on his third go round with oral cancer. This time it is at the base of the tongue. He is headed to surgery on Dec. 5th. It doesn't get any easier when you have to go through it more than once. In fact, I think this third time is the worse for me as a caregiver.
That's why I'm here at OCF. Just to have some support and get as much info as I can. Good luck to your dad and the whole family, because it affects everyone.
