For the past 25 years or so, Buzz would drink ONE Corona almost every day. After being diagnosed, he abruptly stopped.
During his first f/u with the surgeon at Baptist, Buzz asked if he would ever be able to enjoy an occasional beer. The physician's response was "ONLY on your birthday, New Year's Eve and July 4th"! His reasoning was the same as Girlcat's doctor...just in case there IS a chance of risking re occurrance....
