Hi David,

I think the chemo is in reserve if the cancer becomes actually invasive. Though it is frequent, it is usually surface level, probably because I'm almost hypervigilant. I just am tired of it coming back so frequently.

I NEVER used tobacco, my HPV test came back negative, and I have always been an infrequent and low quantity social drinker. No one really knows why I've presented with this cancer. (When I was a little kid I used to eat SweeTarts until my tongue would almost bleed. My dad told me that they were bad for me. My first, irrational thought when I was told that the spot on my tongue was cancer was "Wow, Dad was right!")

Thanks for your response.
