I'm at UCSF. Several opinions. I definitely have to get surgery , tongue reconstruction, lymph nodes removed and radiation therapy abd now maybe chemo with the radiation because I am young and they want to insure that they get it all out so I have more chance of surviving. So I have a long tough road ahead of me. I just finished up work- took a leave of absence etc- so at least that piece of my life is settled so I can focus on getting through this and getting healthy.

I'm just trying to take each day one by one- and be positive- that's all I can do.
