I was diagnosed with oral cancer in late November, biopsied, ct'd and scheduled for surgery Jan 31st. 12 hour surgery scheduled with removal of one-half of my palate with skin graft. 10 day hospital stay with two in intensive care. Expect to have radiation in a month. Scared, yet looking forward to getting something done. This waiting is worse than anything else. Trying so hard to let go of everything going on around me and concentrate on me getting well. Any suggestions on keeping my frustration level in control?
