Welcome to my new blog.
I am creating it so that friends and family can follow the medical journey that I am reluctantly embarking on. My plan is to update it regularly, and to go back and review a bit so that everyone can see a bit about how I got here.
As hard as it is to wrap my mind around, it seems I have cancer. We (my doctors and I) discovered this during surgery to remove what we thought was a benign tumor in my parotid gland five long days ago. As of today, I am still waiting to read the final pathology report this coming Friday. (For those of you, who, like me a few short months ago, have no idea what a parotid gland is - it is a saliva gland located pretty much in front of and slightly below your ear)
The docs are recommending radiation therapy, but I don't know all the details about that yet.
I guess that is the general background. Wish me luck on this journey - I hope you never join me!
