Ken is out of surgery and I just talked to his Dr. He said he took 3 samples - right and left base of tongue and by the voice box. He said he is worried so I am a mess. He said we could come in on Tues. to get the results but that is Ken's birthday so I am not sure he will want to come in then. I asked the Dr. if the biopsies come back positive what the next step would be and he said surgery but that we will talk about it on Tues. if necessary. Considering they said surgery was not an option last time I am not sure how it can be this time. I PRAY the results are good but I am so scared.
