I'm 2.5 weeks from surgery- I can speak but sound like elmer fudd
I can swallow tiny amounts of water- and they say in a few weeks i can move on to food if I master water-- but I'm dreaming of food and eating a whole meal- but I just don't know if this will ever ever be a reality for me. It all seems so far away and makes me so so sad.


I miss salads-- and ll my fav foods-- feel so robbed and so sad. they thought they coudl do a parttial gloseectomy but due to the placement of the tumor they couldn't save much of my tongue-- there is a litle bit left on my left side.

Anyway--- justhaving such a hard time. I know I am lucky to be alive etc etc but this just sucks. I'm willingto do anything it tkes to be able to eat some normal food again a nd talk somewhat like I did before-- ANYTHING
