In 2001 my 71 year old husband was diagnosed with Squamous Cell Carcinoma of the right tonsil. Treatment was a bear but got through it. Several years ago he had molar extractions that led to entire jaw being infected and now fractured. Next week he's going in for mandibulectomy & fibula (plus more bone needed) free flap reconstruction. We thought just a Ng tube would suffice but after swallow eval a peg tube is necessary and happens Friday. I'm retired and havent ever seen this. I am very scared. I grief I'll be driving a whole man to suffer torment after the surgery. Any happy positive thoughts & prayers much appreciated. | | |
