Hi All,
It's me again. Today my husband and I visited the CCC that my doctor referred me to. We did not hear the news we were hoping for. After a long visit with the oncology/radiology doctor, she scheduled me for a Pet Scan next Monday and a follow up for the results the following Thursday. From there, she wants send me to see an oral surgeon to see if I would have to pull my teeth. She also gave me options of having a Chemo IV patch while my gums are heeling and wants to put in a peg before following up with more chemo and radiation.
I am so scared,I can't believe this is my life. I graduated from college at age 40 in May of 07 with a Bachelors Degree in Special Education. I taught in Hawaii last year and I moved back home this summer where I landed a job in my home town. My husband and I married May 23, 2008 after being together for 18 years. I moved back home, rented a house, taught 3 days and BOOM!! found out I didn't have a canker sore, I had cancer!

I agree with all of you that said get more opinions!! There are a accredited centers not too far away from me, I want to get opinions from at least two of them before going past the Pet Scan on Monday.
Thank you for all of your advice, I will be looking forward to much more... Thank you for being here!!
Much love to you, Becky
