Dear All,

When I discovered this site, I didn't know how to particpate in such a forum, so I signed in as "August," since most people seemed to have some sort of clever moniker. Now that I feel that I have made friends here, I am not comfortable not using my own name, which is Colleen. I'll keep "August" as my sign-in name, since it is part of my history here, but it isn't my name. It's my birthday month.

Colleen--T-2N0M0 SCC dx'd 12/28/05...Hemi-maxillectomy, partial palatectomy, neck dissection 1/4/06....clear margins, neg. nodes....no radiation, no chemo....Cancer-free at 4 years!
