Now at least I can be checked a little more regularly and he can keep an extra eye on my mouth and incisions. The angels were with me today when I got determined to phone around. The office I called apparently was taking new patients but had put a hold on taking new ones for a bit...I told the secretary my story and we got a call back later in the afternoon stating that the doctor consented to taking my husband and I. More prayers have been answered on this one...I had to have made about 30 phone calls and by the time I made this one I didn't even think she could understand me my tongue had gotten so swollen. Well anyway like I said not cancer news but it is great news for us...
