I know you are nervous, and I hope this resolves quickly and turns out to be nothing more than a swollen cheek. Clark has had swelling on and off on his left cheek over the years and also has pain that is from a radiation-scarred salivary duct. Every PET scan has been clear. I just wanted to offer some support. You are doing the right thing in getting it checked out. Hang in there.
My best to you- Anita
