We are going to wait on the pathology report to know mlre about the situation. Want to know the craziest thing about all of this I just asked the doctor was it from smoking? Alcohol? And he said no your brother was just picked randomly. He is negative for HPV too. So literally he was just picked randomly! Was anyone here picked randomly?
