get an excellent dentist.

The reason Mike had his lymph node biopsied was because our dentist, Dr. Emily McCarthy and Shelly, our hygienist at Fremont Dental Group said to Mike more than once "you should get this checked out." In late January after asking "did you get that checked out?" they went so far as to refer Mike to the Ear Nose & Throat doctor across the street. Mike went in for a CT scan and scope on January 28th and had the lymph node biopsied on February 1st. In fact, on February 1st there was a raging white-out blizzard in eastern Nebraska. I was shocked that Mike was planning to keep his appointment and commented that he could die in a blizzard on the way to the doctor's office. But there was no stopping him. Somehow, in his soul, he knew he needed to get this done. The bottom line: Go to the dentist regularly and make sure you have a good one.
