And yes, Kudos to the dental hygenist... We should have a place on the board where we can write a note of praise to these types of proactive folks who act in great ways on our behalf. Someone else suggested creating a pin or certificate we could give them... I know I'd give my ENT a gold star for how much he's been in my corner the past few months...
Celebrating with you Dan!!! (And Dan's brother!!!)

Joined: Mar 2003 Posts: 64 | Dan, recommend the hygienist for the OCF Dental Lifesavers on this website. We did this with Jack's hygienist who found both of his cancers. I think this gets all hygienists more conscientious about looking for cancer when they hear that some of their collegues are finding them. Jack and I are both thankful for your brother's good news too.

I was so excited that you posted your photo so now I could put a face with your name.
The other topic where you posted was closed so I thought I would add here that I think that your and Ed's fears completely reflect how my mom feels about leaving her loved ones behind....she has always told me that is her biggest fear but not really a fear just that she too would not want us to have to experience the grief.
Whenever I read your posts I can feel how sincere and kind you are. You are always in my heart and most definately with a smile!
Love,
Dani
