Hi. My name is Natalie. My grandmother of 89yrs was diagnosed in May with Squamous Cell Oral Carcinoma. She has started a 4 week course of Radiation in the hope of slowing the progress of this cancer. I'm interested to hear from others who have undergone similar radiation, and what your experience and side effects were like, as well as what the success rate was.

I'm also looking for recipe ideas for optimal nutrition for her during this time. She has lost all her teeth to the cancer, cannot wear her dentures anymore, limiting her ability to eat .... along with the pain she feels when she eats.
