Thank you all for your very kind words and sharing your stories. I'm amazed by your courage and strength wish I had half as much.

Today was a horrible day. Just horrible. I'd write more but just can't right now.

When you think others around you can be strong and supportive but just can't: you're left alone. But when the closest lash out, kick you when you're down, it's unbearable.

I spent most of the day in bed. No calls. I'm really sad.

Biopsy results in 2 weeks, June 7th. I have an appointment to see the oral pathologist in person to get the results.

I think she ought to have taken more samples (which she did by freezing and a blade then sutures) but at almost $400 per pop, not including lab work, maybe even she felt sorry for me.

I hope to share more of my story in the upcoming days or hours ...

And thank you all so much for sharing yours
