My Squamous Cell Carcinoma grew from a white patch on the bottom of my tongue. The first ENT I saw diagnosed it by sight as oral lichen planus. He told me not to worry. Two years later it became cancerous. Any patches that don't go away should be monitored closely in case they become cancerous like mine did.

The number of people involved in my care (@ a CCC) is humbling. Doctors, nurses, therapists, support staff, & of course, family. With everyone fighting for me to beat cancer the least I can do is fight back and win!
