The C word Posted by Ann on 10/24/2019, 10:11 pm I found out yesterday I have low grade salivary gland cancer. Only 2-3 people out of 100,000 get it. MY thoughts are how ironic the glands that get a good workout gets cancer and of course my obesity helped create this . It is treatable and will help me stay on this course of health. Prayers appreciated.

This is what my daughter had Posted by Pam T on 10/29/2019, 1:13 pm, in reply to "The C word" What kind is it Ann? My daughter had salivary gland cancer a couple of years ago. She had one of the rare ones, MASC, stands for mammary analog secretary carcinoma. They only identified this particular one a few years ago. She had surgery and radiation. There is a terrific facebook group for people with salivary cancer. If you would like the info I can find it for you.It's a closed group.
