Yes. H&N: Staging is easy to get to iv, and still be cured. Tongue: oral or base? Nodes: bilat, one side? Need chemo and rt doc that like to work together on these cases. Support team for dental, dietary. Don't give up, find people that want to help.

Depends: Cancer it a tricky deal, and i would never say never. It will probably require aggressive chemotherapy, radiation, and possible surgical intervention, but it would be best to consult with your oncologist and the oral/maxillofacial surgeon who will be taking care of you.
