[quote=Cheryld]chemo as a treatment doesn't cure oral cancer. What it does is soften up the tumor so that when radiation hits it it is more easily killed. This is why they are given in tandem usually. Hopefully all of this is a moot point because your surgery will go well and they will get it all this time. I have to admit after surgery even though I looked like crap the trache was the worst of it. Prepare for the worst hope for the best and you may be surprised. have a good day.
