hello, everyone. i'm a 23 yr. old female who is recovering from tongue cancer. my doctors seemed to have done things backwards. i started out with external radiation from december to february. then i was to have brachytherapy in march. soon after, i was getting my symptoms back and what do ya know... i had to have 2/3 of my tongue removed along with the lymph nodes in my neck. it was an awful experience. i've been out of the hospital for 2 months now and am still in recovery. i'm not talking all that well or even that much. eating isn't very easy for me, which is bad cuz i've hit 100 lbs this past week. anyhow... i hope to start feeling better soon and i hope to meet the rest of you!
God Bless.
