Loved reading all the grandmother stories. My husband came home from hospital today after total glossectomy with flap replacement and jaw bone removed with no replacement to make swallowing easier. The doctor said all margins clear. He will not have rad since this is his second bout and he had the max rad 6 years ago. My hope is that he will be well and live to 106. Next step will be to remove trach and n/g tube after swallow eval and get him talking. I would love to hear success stories. Happy New Year. elem
