Hi 

I was diagnosed with tongue cancer in February this year and has my operation in march. They took some.of.my left tongue did a flap from my left arm and also has a neck dissection.

Lucky for me it has not travel so I didn't need any further treatment. I know have monthly check ups with my consultant.

It's six months down the line for me and I'm eating mostly normal food can't manage steak r salads but eat a lot of fish and chicken also pasta.

My shoulder at first was stuff but is now fine did all the exercise I was given.

I have a lisp but people can understand me and I talk a.lot on the phone I'm now back in work. 

The one issue I have is the scar on my neck is painful at the moment but I need to ensure I do my exercises and move it more.

It's been a hard 6 months but I'm sti here and having a near normal life 

Keep positive
