I don't understand 2 things. I read a different article that stated he had surgery in December and they had to remove his front teeth. That article and his press conference (a few days before the most recent surgery) did not say that he had cancer in December. I don't think that they stated the medical reason for that surgery. I am not a doctor but I would think that the jawbone cancer 6 months later would have to be related to the previous surgery.

I was curious about why he would go to ECMC instead of Roswell. I think that I looked on the website and ECMC lists itself as specializing in Oral Cancer. I am a skeptic about any hospital or physician claims so that may be a claim that isn't accurate at all. All of you know much more about this than I do but I noticed that Buffalo commenters were shocked about ECMC so I tried to check out why he might possibly go there.
