October 2006 – I suspect that their is an intruder in my mouth

After some long hard Googling (it ain’t easy to Google, you know) I finally concluded that this thing was not good and wasn’t going away on its own.

My best guess was that it was some kind of squamous cell cancer. I learned that President Grover Cleveland had it operated on which was contributed to by his hefty partying, cigar smoking, and drinking. I smoked about a pack a day since 18 years old but I’m not much of a drinker. I probably have a beer or two once a week whilst dining out with my wife, Joan.

Through November and December I kept busy enough not to think about this thing living in my mouth. However, it was working into loosening the next to the next to the wisdom tooth. I didn’t disclose this to my wife mostly for personal reasons. My mind told me that she has enough on her plate at the moment and it isn’t a good idea to overload the plate. So, we’ll leave it at that.
