Wow, what a coincidence? Dr. Futran & Carol are the BEST!

My dog & I are leaving on a long road trip 8/23 & going to visit my uncle, 74, in NM, who recently was diagnosed with Non-Hodgkins lymphnoma, & another friend, 34, in CO who's has had cancer & Drs. just found a different spot which was biopsied yesterday. Then on to visit friends in Boise, mainly one, 70, who's still trying to bounce back after fallopian tube cancer. She had a 14 lb. tumor growing before Drs. figured out what it was. I'll make my way up to MT & Spokane to see former mother-in-law, 83, who had lung cancer surgery 2 years ago. I hope to see Dr. Futran & Carol when I go over to Seattle then work my way down to Bend to see friends & family there & especially a friend, 77, who is just getting over breast cancer. Then on to Lodi, CA. where I'll see a previous stranger, 65?,now friend, who heard about my diagnosis from ?? & called me to encourage surgery. He had squamous cell cancer, also found under a tooth, & had surgery right away & is still cancer free now 8 years. At the time, he emailed me photos of his appearance after surgery, which convinced me to go ahead with my surgery a.s.a.p. His surgery was the same as mine except on the opposite side of the face & Drs. opted to cut down the middle of the chin. Dr. Futran chose to cut ear to ear on me. I do believe that CANCER has touched everybody's lives in some for or another. It's just a dreadful disease but thank God for the available treatments & for friends, family & forums for support.
