I had one appear on my left cheek which was removed a few weeks later. Even lost all of my teeth for rads , chemo and then after those, Rad seed implants in my tongue which was terrible and is worse now pain wise. One day I have to put my profile in the right way. I left most things out of it. Hck tho, I am alive and smiling and kickin OC ASS. LOL
