Here I go...

I go into Mayo hospital on Monday 22nd to have my surgery...They are going to use the lazer and do a neck resection...Don't know about radiation yet until they do the pathology...They may leave a hole in my soft palate, it is a 50/50 proposition now but, the doctor said they can repair it later...So, I am nervous and very hopeful...THanks for all your support and sharing your stories they have helped me so much...
