Well....that was a very long wait - nearly 4 weeks for the biopsy and another 3 weeks for the results....but the news was good! Frictional Keratosis was the official diagnosis - basically she just has a callus on her tongue.

While I'm greatly relieved I do not need to stick around here, I do want to say that this is a remarkable community you folks have here. I read a bunch of threads here to try and be better prepared if we got bad news - and I'm in awe of the strength of the survivors and caregivers on this forum. My best to all of you.

peace!
