Dear TeeCee
Sorry I wish I had answers for you. One suggestion is to call the VA Hospital in Washington DC, to see if they can help. Did they say why the cancer prevents them from making the dentures?

I hope your father changes his mind and doesn't give up. Chemo and radiation is a lot different than it was 10 years ago, and the machines are much better also.

I see my dentist next week, I'll ask him. MD/DC/VA (northern Virginia) have great services. I'll also take to my oncologist dentist.
