Hi Karen...

I am also quite new to this site diagnosed Mid July with oral cancer still waiting for more information and surgery (Sept 8). It's the waiting that is difficult and the recovery the fight but with a strong emotional and mental states from what I have read makes it easier. Your husband seems to have a head start on that one!!

That being said I know you two will win this battle. I think I am more like you. You will take wonderful care of him and he will be great!!! Best wishes for the 26th
