This could be a way to get oral cancer more noticed:

With all the intelligent people here, Im sure some good questions could be asked.

When I clicked on "email your question", it took me to "page not found". Anyone find another way? Thanks. Jane

Sorry, it was the same for me. Looks like CNN has a glitch on their site. Hope it gets fixed so we can give them some oral cancer questions.

Alternatives until CNN makes a fix: You can post your question in the SoundOff (comments) section below that article. If you have a Twitter account, you can tweet to @sanjayguptaCNN. Or, if you have a video camera, you can upload video with your question to CNN iReport.

April 2006: Husband dx by dentist with leukoplakia on tongue. Oral surgeon's biopsy 4/28/06: Moderate dysplasia; pathology report warned of possible "skip effect." ENT's excisional biopsy (got it all) 5/31/06: SCC in situ/small bit superficially invasive. Early detection saves lives.
