Hello Katie.
You are right that there is strength and hope here. I am a newbee as we say. Be proud of us, because we pray you are not among us. One thing is for sure. A lot of us have worried ourselves sick, only to get good news. I'm talking about reoccurance and test results and the like. We do not know to much about you, or your symptoms. You will be recieving a lot of responses shortly. Although this is an oral cancer site, we invite all to visit and learn. It is a possibility, but I'm betting you don't have cancer. You must have had bloodwork or something ( 5 months? ). Anyway, you hang tight and get those negative thoughts out of your mind. We do not want you getting ulcers for nothing. As to where to go from here...I would say there is a calvery coming your way from this website and they will let you know! Relax...and give that boy a hug! Your family is in my prayers. Petey
