Welcome to our CaringBridge website. We are using it to keep friends and family updated.
Walter has suffered for almost a year from TMJ, we have been to every doctor, specialist, dentist, dermatologist, chiropractor.....
2 weeks ago, God took us to Dr. Kahn in Jacksonville, via Mayo Clinic. He is the only dr that took a biopsy of his cheek.
Cut to today. We met with Dr. Casler of Mayo and he confirmed that Walter has squamous Cell carcinoma in his left cheek and most likely his neck. He has a good plan of surgery to remove both.
While we are here they are kind enough to expedite the pre surgery testing.
March 9th is surgery with a 1 night stay in hospital!
Please pray that his jaw releases from the TMJ struggle , which is unrelated to the cancer! So that the surgeon can remove it all!
