Ime sorry that I havent really been in touch with things for quite a while, My husband and I and my children came over to the Uk to visit his parents, he was recieving palliative treatment at that time, he got sicker and was reviewed by the doctors here who have now done a complete glossectomy,(taken away his whole toungue) and full neck dissection and removed his hyoid bone and his inner jaw and some of the bone and the floor of his mouth and suspended his larynx, he had this operation five days ago and is doing okay but i dont know how i feel as I feel in sort of shock, and also upset that they found more lymph node involvement and I feel for my husband so much that I dont want to see him as i cant stop crying and i so want to keep his spirits up,but dont think I can.
