Gordon, I found your posts originally after searching for "life after tongue surgery" and I want to add my encouragement and support as well as follow some of your personal "if I had to do it over" and general strategies.

Seems that I saw you post something to the tone of not rushing to surgery too quickly.

Since total glossectomy likely will be my next "card in the deck" I'd like your reflections.
Don't know the proper way to address this and apologize if this is thread jacking, but you seem to be a knowledgeable winner (10 yrs).

Call me a fan. Send me addresses, phone numbers, etc and I'll assist as I can. I relate to your complaints.
