Hello QueenBAlex, 

You've come to the right place in joining our forum as we have an active community of members who have been affected by throat cancer and I hope that they will pop by and share their story with you. I am sorry to hear that it has come back this time starting in your soft palate but it's reassuring that it is stage 1 and localised and I hope that surgery will sort it out for you. 

I thought I would mention one of our members who has extensive experience of tonsil cancer and even though it has come back in a slightly different place, she would be a great person for you to talk to here. RadioactiveRaz also has a personal blog I am sure she won't mind me sharing with you: https://radioactiveraz.wordpress.com/ 

Feel free also to get in touch with our cancer nurses on this free number 0808 800 4040 - their line is open Monday to Friday from 9am to 5pm if you would like to talk to them about anything.

I hope that you find out soon about your surgery and that it all gets taken care of quickly and you make a swift recovery. I will now let other forum members who may have been through this before come and say hello and share their story with you.

Best wishes, 

Lucie, Cancer Chat Moderator
