I am in Moncton, New Brunswick. Re not being the same procedure, I assume that your removal was small compared to mine, due to the fact that my doc had to cut one of the nerves and, hence, the neck muscle. About half of the gland was removed, as well as two lymph nodes so that a more accurate pathology could be done.

It's the pits about missing out on the long weekend fesivities, eh? All my buddies are heading up country for the big canoing-fishing-camp opening-drinking trip. I won't be able to do any heavy work up at the camp until just about the time that the blackflies and skeeters are on the go.

Again, I hope all goes well for you too.
