I was thinking today of your fat tongue and how long my ENT and I looked at an area that we decided was just being rubbed by my partial and decided not to biopsy it. It did not dawn on my until you were talking about your tongue that this may have been my tumor.
I am thinking of you and your wife and family. Stay strong and keep chillin'.
