Welcome to the Oral Cancer Foundation. I can't add much that hasn't been addressed. I can however urge you to have her Doctors throw everything they have at this cancer the first time. It is a very unforgiving diaease.
Write down questions you will have before the appointments, You never remember to ask them all when your there.
Will you be your Mothers primary caregiver? It is a diffucult job at best. You will have to be her advocate. Hopefully all goes well and they can remove all the cancer.
Hoping for the best, Danny Boy
Please keep us posted on her as she travels this most diffucult journey.
