TWO GO AROUND’S
by: LARRY J H on Tue, Sep 09 2008

I know my story is not much different than those who have been there. I have been diagnosted with oral cancer- operated on and all well for eight months. Then the swelling in the neck came up one day on the side of my neck-back to ENT -round two with cancer- this time lymhod cancer [lymphoma]- 6 hours later from operaton 38 lymphnoids [lymph nodes] removed from my neck- its now a year later and all well.

Just the reminder when I look in the mirror and say to myself:do you really know just how fortunate you are to be here with your family and friends -always look to god -there is strength in numbers and pray has always been the real cure. Keep your head up and stay strong. Having a postitive is one other thing that can and will make the difference—god bless to all.
