You’re All Good Now… Right?

In this episode, Barbara, Jamie and Stef dive into something that doesn’t get talked about enough: what actually happens after treatment ends.You reach that milestone and everyone around you breathes a sigh of relief. You’re told to get back to normal. Move on. Be grateful. But it’s not that simple.We talk about the reality of life after tongue cancer: the anxiety that lingers between scans, the physical aftermath your body is still dealing with, and the strange identity shift that comes when the “big scary thing” is no longer front and centre — but never fully gone.From navigating follow-ups and healthcare systems, to learning how to trust your body again (or not), this is an honest conversation about survivorship that goes beyond the word “remission.” Because being “all clear” doesn’t mean everything is.💬 Need Support?If you’ve been diagnosed with tongue cancer (or are supporting someone who has), you can find help here:🌍 Website🤝 Join support groups & mailing list: via the website💌 Contact us: [email protected]📢 Get InvolvedWe’re building this with our community — and you can be part of it:✨ Volunteer & share your experience🎙️ Apply to appear on the podcast🧠 Take part in research opportunities💛 Support Our WorkWe’re a small charity with a big mission — and we rely on community support to keep going.👉 Find out more how to make a donation or fundraise for us here📲 Follow & ConnectInstagram | Facebook | TikTok | Mailing List Hosted on Acast.
