Dear Peace....I know I have asked you before, but I can't find your answer: Is your upper or lower jaw involved? I have had a maxillectomy (upper jaw removal) and I have made several acquaintances on this board with similar surgery. There are also several on this board who have had mandibulectomies.....lower jaw removal. We all seem to be doing well. Why not post again in a separate topic, so that we can respond to you personally?
