Carol.....My heart goes out to you to think of going through this a second time.

My palatal surgery was able to be done without an external incision. I know that no two cases are alike, so of course, your surgeon will know best, but I would surely get more than one opinion.

Is your lesion on the hard palate or the soft palate? Where was your first cancer located?

Please keep us posted, and I will keep you in my prayers as you begin this second journey. You did it once, and you can do it again. I am just sorry that you have to!
