Hi Shelby,
My husband just got home from the hospital and he had a partial glossectomy ( they took 75%) of his tiongue, neck disection, and partial pharyngectomy. He's doing okay. He looked in the mirror for the first time today when we got home. He loooks like a mac truck smacked him the face and neck but he's alive and he will get well again. The incision is healing nicely. He won't even have a scar. Anyway, just wanted to let you know that it's doable. It's tough but it's doable. Good Luck on the 27th.
