THIRD BIOPSY IS POSITIVE - I HAVE CANCER

I was parked in the Walmart parking lot about to pick up a few groceries when my phone rang.  I was expecting a call from my ENT doctor with results of the last biopsy.  Here's a video of what I felt.

I knew it all along but it took 3 biopsies to determine it was cancer of my tongue and lymph nodes. Now I can finally be referred to an Oncologist and begin treatment after having the tongue symptoms for 10 months and the swollen lymph node for 4 months - and removal of my left tonsil in between.


Here is the link to the beginning of my blog.

  1. Hoping for the best for you. I am a cancer survivor myself (prostate, diagnosed nearly 20 years ago) and I can relate to getting that phone call with your biopsy results -- still vividly recall my phone call!
