- Joe knew there was something wrong. After coming to Johns Hopkins he was finally diagnosed with cancer of the tongue. Learn how head and neck cancer surgeon Wojtek Mydlarz and facial plastic and reconstructive surgeon Shaun Desai surgically removed his cancer and rebuilt Joe’s tongue using a free flap from his forearm with no need for radiation. Joe is now cancer free and is able to eat, speak and taste again. #TongueCancer #JHPatientStories

My daughter had this same surgery a year ago in Gainesville FL. She was only 29 at the time. It was the hardest thing as a parent to watch your child go through. So brave and so strong through it all. She remains cancer free now for a little over a year. Thank god for doctors that can accomplish such miracles.
Amy Urlacher hi. What stage was her cancer if I may ask?? My mom just got diagnosed with Moderately differentiated squamous cell carcinoma of the tongue. We don’t know what to expect.
👊❤
I hate this sht medical system. Its pure satanic.
@@JaspreetKaur-sr9oqhowever is your mom
It's just amazing the work that can be done now to help patients!! Awesome job!!
I'm so happy for you! i go for my biopsy on 9/28/20. i can't afford the biopsy due to no insurance, but I have to know because its been months and the sores are not good. If anything more than the biopsy is needed I wont be able to do anything, so its good to see people with a happy ending

Hi is your mom have a cancer? Anong stage na po
What is the chances of life of my sister suffering tongue cancer stage 4 and sucesfull operation last dec.27,2019
i had the surgery done the day before Thanks Giving 2019 a total glossectomy and a flap and as of today I'm still on a feeding tube with what should have been the tip of my new tongue anchored to my lower gums swallowing is difficult to say the least eating by mouth or normally hasn't happened yet they can save you from cancer that's what they do i'm hoping to see other doctors that can fix this and my ability to speak but for eating by mouth is the most important part to me. I wish her the best. Sincerely Ron.
How must cost?

Hi how is your sis
My brother had cancer in tongue, got surgery and got a piece to cover the extraction then he got quimio therapy and died in hospital. It was very healthy, never smoke, not alcohol , muscular body full of life until got to hospital and bad decisions of doctors. 😖😭
I'm sorry to have known your brother who had unfortunately his tongue cancer and he couldn't go through it ! 😢"
Right now it's hard to swallow and I can't control the saliva in my mouth so I use suction machine to remove it.. It's been a week already after the operation..
How is it now??
How are you doing now? I had surgery 3 weeks ago, it’s been pretty rough..
