Ilost 1/3rd of my tongue the 1st time and had no rad or chemo. I hope this time is just as easy to deal with. I had a radiologist tell me I should have had rad & chemo last time. Maybe he was right, maybe not but I hope to find out tomorrow after they finish in the operating room. Whatever they want I will agree to.
