It seems that I cannot get past three years and a few months of bringing cancer free. Back on may 14th I went in for my first appointment with my new dr at the Huntsman Cancer Center in Salt Lake. I was checked over by two doctors and things looked good.

Now three weeks later I had my CT Scan and my follow up appointment. Went in to see Dr. Hunt for my results, the scan came back clean. Here the kicker, in a three week time a tumor showed under my tongue. He said it did not look good and took a sample of it. With the Huntsman center I was back in 3 days later with the results in.

It came back as being cancer and now I will be surgery on the 27th of June. I am looking at ten hours in surgery, 7 to 10 days in the hospital. The flap will be taken from left arm to rebuild the area back up.

I am glad that this will all be done at the Huntsman Cancer Center. They have there own hospital and I hear the care is top notch.

They do not know why it keeps coming back around the three year marks. So now let see what happens in 2016.

All my cancer have not been HPV, never smoked. I guess I am tested in my daily life with this and just need to take each day as it comes.
