Honestly, I read that the day I got the pathology report from the surgeon who removed the first tumor from under my jaw (she thought she was going to be removing the Parotid gland, and it turned out to be a metastatic tumor in a Lymph gland.)

I believe I read it on the NCI (National Cancer Institute) web site, but after more than 4 years and a ton of chemo, I can't be sure. Sorry.
