Stan I had a similar diagnosis. Surgery on 2/3/15. 10 months later and all is still well and I am living my regular life. Residual tongue irritation and some numbness, a bit of a lopsided smile..but hey I have a lot to smile about! May the New Year bring you health and happiness.


I am a 65 year old reitired woman. I have been married to a great man for 42 years. I had a right breast masectomy 15 years ago.





squamous cell carcinoma under my tongue was diagnosed earlier this month. I had surgery 2/3/15. 22 lymph nodes out of my neck came back negative for metasis. The Drs. say I do not need chemo or radiation. I'm off the feeding tube and now on a liquid/soft food diet. I see the surgeon again next week. I am grateful and optimistic.
