That's wonderful news, PJ. Congratulations.

I have a biopsy scheduled for tomorrow. Naturally I'm very concerned about it...and the results. Scared. When I saw your post, I searched your member number and read all of your posts, and the replies of course. Your story is about all that I've seen here on the forum that gives me any hope. Most of what I've read here is dreadfully terrifing. It really makes me wonder, if the biopsy is positive, whether I should go ahead and let them carve me up, and burn me up with radiation, or not. I don't have any pain or other symptoms. Maybe I'd be lucky enough to get killed in a car wreck, or have a heart attack, before the oral cancer causes me any problems.

I was sure happy to read your story and learn that there isn't always fire where there's smoke, or should I say there isn't always cancer where there's smoking.
