Normally I would post this but I need some extra prayers. Here's what been happening to me............
A couple of weeks ago. I notice a lump in my mouth by the gum line, a larger lump on my chin about the same vicinity as the other one and a swollen lymphoid in the area where the neck meets the shoulder. After seeing the doctors, getting a ct-scan, pet-scan, and 3 biopsies on the lymphoid, they diagnosed I have Cancer. They didn't know which kind so today I was under the knife for complete removal of the lymphoid. They will send the lymphoid to lab to figure what kind of cancer cells there are. The pet-scan revealed a large tumor from my ear down to deep in my throat and with the results from the lab can determine the next step.
Wish me luck - I need it, and thank you for letting vent some fears.
Bob

Man that sucks. But I will tell you, seveal years back I had a young man I had taken care of since he was a small kid come by the office and tell me he had cancer. Sounds almost verbatum what you are describing. Needless to say, he's still kicking after some surgery and treatments with radiation and some chemo, and that's been maybe 10 years ago!
Good luck, and do EXACTLY what the doctors tell you to do. I'm a survivor too, 18 years cancer free! You CAN beat it! Your in all of our thoughts and prayers old friend.
