HPV
A couple of months ago I noticed a small skin flap on the inside of my cheek, it was small and did not seem to get any bigger, last week I decided to have it looked at.

Gratitude
"Be grateful for those who have opened the door before you, they have shown you new possibilities." When I came across this quotation, I immediately thought of all of you here at CSN. Thank you all!
