Hi Tina, it sounds as though you are doing so well. Can I ask when you had your surgery? My husband had 60% of his tongue and the floor of his mouth removed plus a double neck dissection, first dissection in may when a small tumour was removed and the other side in November with the more radical surgery. His flap was from his thigh. He has just finished 6 weeks of radiotherapy and still struggling with talking and eating. He was speaking fine before the RT. it's very encouraging to read your post. Thanks
