Surgery and Recovery

It has been two weeks now since my surgery.  It is the same as the one I had in October, only on the left side of my neck.  The surgery went well and I have been doing way better this time than last time.  More movement sooner and slightly more energy.  But I do still have an issue.  My tongue. 

The doctor assures me that it will return to normal functioning.  He said that the tumor was completely surrounding the nerve that affects my tongue, therefore he had to work with it quite a bit.  Hence why half of my tongue isn't working.  My husband says it will be fine too.  But although I am doing my best to think happy thoughts about it, I am still a little bit concerned.  Please help me out!!  I could use all the happy, shiny thoughts, prayers, and candle lighting I can get, to get my tongue to working properly again so that I can eat without fighting my food.  Thanks so much for your help! 

Blessed be!
