Check up with Dr. Kim/Ghali

I went on Monday, Nov. 17th for my 3 month check up. I only got to see Dr. Kim and one of the residents.
He thought everything looked fine, and then he told me the reason for coming every 3 months is because 90% of mouth cancers return within 2 years. That was a shocker! but I feel my odds are way less as mine was on my tongue, and they cut all of the cancer part off.
I discussed my shoulder problems with Dr. Kim, and he said my big surgery could have effected some big nerve they have to cut through in my neck. At least I know there could be a reason for my inability to raise my arm all the way other than the physical reasons.
Pray for my DIL - Tonya. She is critically ill in WK North with double pneumonia, a secondary bacterial infection in her lungs, and H1N1. The H1N1 didn't show up when they first checked her.

Hugs to all.
