Hi Fred:

Welcome, I guess. Maybe you won't even have to be here after your biopsy, but if you do, you sure found the right place. As David said: As we say "it's not cancer until it's been confirmed by a path report." So, let us know as soon as you get your results. There are many members who have had BOT cancer, and they all seem to be doing well, with no problems with their speech, except maybe during early treatment. By the way, I like the y'all expression - sounds like an Alabama one wink. Hope to hear some good news after the 31st.
