Hi. I am DanT and a Canadian. I'm a newbie at the forum but a survivor of oral cancer surgery and radiation treatment and have a wonderful host of stories both good and bad to share, or try to help you through some of the times you may be going through. I had a modified radical which is to say half my tongue, half my jaw removed and replaced, the floor of my mouth removed and replaced with thigh tissue and all the nodes and muscle completely off the right side of my neck. Dry mouth is my world. Good Luck to you all
