DD is going aggressive

I'm dropping in again and may just stay.. Remember my DD who had tongue cancer and they got it all...NOT!!! They did a scanning MRI on Thursday and found the cancer had invaded her Jaw Now they are removing her teeth and implants on Monday. Tues, they are doing Outpatient Breast lumpectomy. An Ent oncology visit at 9AM then starting Centron radiation at 2:30 75 miles away from the AM visit. Then It will be every day for 6 weeks.. After that they are doing a double mastectomy as she also has cancer in the left breast.. then a hysterectomy ect a month after that.. but the genecitist and oncologist say the dangers of not doing the mastectomy are too high.. Her decision is to go the route.. Her Oncoradiologist says that she should not have too much trouble as this is the latest machine and does less damage.. Looks like we're going to be busy as the hospitals are 100 and 130 miles away from the house... Thanks again for all the help the first time... Rusty

DD has lost 50 pounds, and still cannot eat most foods.. On the plus side she is fighting hard.. They are going to do her oral surgery on Thursday after the center sets up her focus.. I cannot travel with her this time as my Dr pulled the travel permit.. I have Ms and fell in the yard tearing the ligaments in the left knee so my poor DH is doing all the driving while I sit home and go nuts.. I do take my time cooking her foods that she can eat and listening as well.. Thanks for all the support Rusty
