April 2006: Husband dx by dentist with leukoplakia on tongue. Oral surgeon's biopsy 4/28/06: Moderate dysplasia; pathology report warned of possible "skip effect." ENT's excisional biopsy (got it all) 5/31/06: SCC in situ/small bit superficially invasive. Early detection saves lives.

I just checked it out, and added it to my list of important urls re The Gardasil vaccine. I have more than 2 pages of links and it's still growing with more info. Thanks for being so on top of this. I really appreciate it.
