When my husband was diagnosed with Stave IV Base of Tongue cancer in December of 2010 the first thing I did was go to the internet. There were a lot of sites out there but the Oral Cancer Foundation was the only one we ended up using. We were lucky to find this site so early on in our journey. From the beginning we started posting on the message boards and received so much important information and input from people who had gone through the same types of treatments & experiences. Unfortuantely, my husband passed away only 7 months later but I continue to be a member of the forums where I can receive guidance and well as help those caregivers by sharing my story and giving them support. I don't know where I would be without them! I have also been able to meet some of my "friends" in real life and we continue to be a great local support system for eachother.
