I live on a farm and have horses but our farm is on the bay and the flies and "skeeters" were too much. They never got out of their stalls during the spring and summer. They've been moved further inland to a friend of mine who has a riding academy.
Please let us know how your appointment went - I think it's today? Beth

Thank God!!! The Dr said I might have had trauma to my gum and not realized it and in trying to heal its self it over did it, she said it may get bigger it may get smaller or it may disappear but as long as it doesn't bother me there is no need to cut it off again. I told her it doesn't bother me so I will just leave it. She said if I ever have problems with it to come back in and she will take care of it.
Thank you all so much for all your help and support and I pray that you continue to be cancer free!
