Hi everyone

Just wanted to share some good news back from check up at hospital after having 2 pet scans since December due to abnormal activity , and they have said I am in remission at the moment will be  having 2 monthly visits for check ups for the next year , if that goes well visits will decrease over next 5 years . Got to learn now how to cope with the new me but today can cope with anything 

  • Hi everyone, haven't  been on here for a while . I had base of tongue cancer. Had teeth on lift side removed and 30 radiotherapy sessions, I'm 18 months down the line now. Saliva not good and food very bitter. I need sweet things. I find my lips get numb but living life to the full.  It gave me the courage to go and travel on my own, which I would not have considered before. I'm nearly 81 and really fit and well.  There is life after cancer and positivity really helps. Best wishes to all of you.
