In late 2012 they removed a lump in her jaw bone. So her entire right lower jaw is gone. In April the cancer broke through the surface of the skin. 1 as big as a dollar coin and 2 quarter size. They will remove her entire lower Right face from the cheek bone to the jaw bone area. They will get skin from other parts of her body.

What is the difference between breaking the surface of the skin and the lump you can see in the jaw area?

Please explain to me what is going on. They had a conference call with the children and none of the inlaws were invited to come. So I am at a total loss.

Appreciate your input.
