Hello, I’m new to the forums, this is my first post.
My partner was diagnosed in February 2025 with base of tongue cancer. I lost him Sunday morning to carotid blowout, a devastating and traumatic event that I don’t think I’ll ever get over witnessing.
I’m hoping to find any others who have lost a loved one to this awful syndrome. I am so keen to talk to others about it. I feel so alone.
Thank you x
