This is my place to relate my experiences with cancer treatment, as well as share resources that may be helpful to fellow oral, head, and neck cancer survivors. I was diagnosed with adenoid cystic carcinoma of the left parotid on June 30, 2006. My goal is to continue enjoying the Nebraska Good Life. I call this blog the "Cheeky Librarian", since the cancer was discovered in my cheek, I am a librarian, and many that know me say I fit the slang use of the word 'cheeky'.

Stay tuned - I get biopsy results today
In case I have regular readers of this blog (and I think you know who you are!!), for which I am grateful, I just wanted to let you all know that the dr's office said the results are in. I see him and his staff at noon today - my preference is to get the biopsy news in person. I am more sure of this method than ever, after receiving the MRI results over the phone last month. Hearing the words "there is a suspicious lesion" over the phone line, while by myself at home, just didn't do me too well. (The words "didn't do me too well" are a euphemism for "I wanted to throw up". ) Getting the news in person, where I might be able to ask questions (if the brain still works past any shock I may receive) is a much better method for me. You might experience different mileage with this method, however, if you should get your own cancer (no one else should get this stuff - I wouldn't mind being the last person on earth with it.) More later, folks.
My thoughts and prayers are with you today especially and always. Love you.
