It's official - No more cancer. [View all]

But I still have to go 3 times a year to the maxillofacial surgeon to check for potential problems, as well as more frequent visits to my regular dentist to check for problems. (Because it could come back)

The scan showed no problems (didn't spread).

The check-up today showed a healthy mouth...healthy tissue/gums/tongue....no growths...no nothing to worry about.

Of course I'll still worry. Can't help it.


Still.....I am very happy.


Thank you so much for being there for me. I'm not going anywhere....if I can help someone half as much as you guys helped me that would be great.
