Hey,

I am just lookng for more information, for some insight .. something .. not sure .. but ..
..my mom has oral cancer, was recently confirmed. It's in stage 2, well, the doctor said out of 4 stages, its in stage 2.

The cancer is on my mom's tongue, and it hasn't spread, and she is going for an MRI in the coming week. From there we will kinda get an idea, and what to do next...,

question is what is next? if they surgically remove 30% of her tongue, what happens after that? Does she have to do radiation? or?

but .. i just want to know, what is next, what can i do to help my mom? is there somethign she sshould be doing? exercising more? eatting different? .. like .. my mom doesnt smoke ..she doesnt drink ...

... i jus dun understand it..

just some help .. would be nice,

thanks

H

the world brought me to my knees...
