Hi.

I just thought that I would share a neat thing to come out of this article. I got an email from a woman that live about 10 minutes from me. She is my age and has 4 small children. She was diagnosed tongue cancer last August, and received treatment at Mayo, just as I did. They believe that her cancer went undiagnosed for six years and by the time it was finally discovered was stage 4 and had spread to her lymph nodes. She has given me her phone number and I plan to call her very soon. She also knows another woman, in nearly the same situation that is located about 20 minutes from us.

The part that kind of gives me chills is that she hadn't received this paper for the last 9-10 months. She had just been telling her neighbor that she missed receiving it. And then the first paper she finally received was the one with this story. She believes that she was meant to see this, and so do I.

God Bless,

Amy
