My partner has been having chemo for throat cancer he has it on right tonsil back of tongue and lymph glands.
The chemo hasn't worked so his only option is for a 12 to 14 hour surgery to include using skin from his arm to graft onto the throat 
Has anyone had this? I just need to know more regards eating drinking speaking afterwards.and general recovery time. What will I need to do to help him.
Any advice welcome please.
Hello
Firstly so sorry for your news I don’t have any experience of this myself, but there is a Group that could be more suitable, where you may get more appropriate answers.
https://community.macmillan.org.uk/cancer_types/head-neck-cancer-forum
Also MacMillan help page, which has links to, other support services such as the Mouth cancer foundation
https://www.macmillan.org.uk/cancer-information-and-support/head-and-neck-cancer/throat-cancer
Good luck to you both.
Linda You are my best memory, You are all of my best memories
