That is awful that they were destroyed. My oncologist told me drinking a lot and sucking on hard candies would lessen the chance of that happening after the radiation.
I'm wondering what his oncologist told him. I know he was hospitalized at one point because he had a bad reaction to the chemo. The one thing I haven't understood is how the husband's facial features changed so drastically. When I first saw him after his treatments were done, I didn't recognize him, and I've known them for over 40+ years. We lived next to each other when our kids were little. Thanks be to God, he's been cancer-free for over 5 years now.
