Biopsy Today

Today my doctor performed the biopsy of the mass in my nasopharynx. Trips to the OR are never fun but it went well and I'm thankful for all of the great staff at Strong Hospital.
Dr. Vandersloot said that the mass appeared smaller than it did several days ago when he found it during a routine scope.
He went on to say that he'd be surprised if it was cancer and that it was likely swollen adenoid tissue.
I did a mini dance. I have to wait until mid week, next week, before I get the official word.
Thanks for all of the thoughts and prayers and please keep 'em coming!

Scam.
Too many good things have happened to us in April to let your results be other than you/we want them to be. You've got our collective hopes and Prayers with you, Joel.
