Dea Wayne,
Hope you are recovering and coming back to yourself.
We met with the plastic surgeon who is the chief of staff for plastic surgery at sloan...dr. cordeiro...he explained about the flap and expects it to be soft tissue only.
He floored us when he told us about the extended time frame for recovery...and that he may or may not be able to speak again.
are you able to speak?
we meet with the surgeon tomorrow and will learn more. surgery is on the 30th.
problem is he doesn't believe what the drs say...he has had THREE totally different unrelated cancers in less than 3 years...and now a recurrence. i don't know how much more he can take.
