Hi, Two years ago I had cancer and surgery to remove it.I had a flap , bone taken from my leg to replace a piece of my jaw bone. That failed after 3 weeks. I wore a football helmet thing for a month after a month in the hospital to debreed (for infection). Then I had a bar put in to replace bone, and they used a piece of my shoulder to do this. This is the old fashioned way they use to do it. Well i have a minor infection which I have had for a year, this is in the bar. Now we are up to removeing the bar-putting new one in and taking tissue from my arm to kine my mouth and face with. Needless to say I'm frustrated. Also I've came very far, I eat almost any thing I want, re tought myself to do it differently.I walk every day, the bone removal has healed up very well and except for how I look , I live a normal life. I have a g-tube already but I just maintain it because if we get to new surgerys i'll need it .Anyone have any of these experiences? gnelson
