Hi Everyone!

My name is Karla and everything happened so fast! What started out as a mild irritation on my tongue and an ear ache quickly turned into a tumor on my tongue and down the side of my neck!

I have surgery scheduled for the 7th of October to have all kinds of fun stuff done. I'm still processing the whole thing

Oral cancer? How?!? I never smoked, I'm only a social drinker test came back negative for HPV. The only answer anyone can give me is something wa don't know the reason some one gets cancer or the type of cancer they may get.

I go from being mad one minute, scared out of my mind, to being very zen about things. I guess I haven't found balance yet but I know I need to be in a good place mentally going into the surgery. Any suggestions?
