My son had a pain on the right side of his tongue which he put off doing something about for a long time. His treatment ended almost a year ago and he is doing just fine, now! As a caregiver to my son, (also named Paul) I don't know how we would have gotten thru it without OCF and the wonderful and compassionate people we found here. Hang in there and let us know what's happening.
