Hey guys, I'm scared to death right now and if you have some spare moments, I could really use your thougths and prayers sent my way. I've been a dipper/chewer for many years. While I have tried to give it up several times, it never stuck. I quit (for the last time) about 30 days ago. Unfortunately, I may be too late. I went to the dentist and it turns out I've got a nasty sore inside my mouth that isn't healing. I'm going back in a week and a half to reevaluate, but if it's not doing better, it doesn't look good. I've been praying for a change in the sore but I haven't seen one yet. If you can, please send a quick prayer my way. Thank you,
Joe

Coach I got a sore on my lip it turned out to be skin cancer but it was enough to make me think twice I tried to chew when I was younger but hated the taste wound up a smoker the sun exposure was serious enough for me to change my ways sometimes I don't realize how lucky I am being here now. Quit at any cost is better than the end result. You are in my prayers for sure.

I just went in last week to get some skin removed from my cheek. All you young (and old coaches!) make sure you wear the 36 sunblock along with the dopey hat that shades your entire face. I know I will from now on.

coaches, thank ya'll very much for your encouragement and your prayers. I'll keep you up to date with the check up. I've been a wreck for about 2 weeks now playing the waiting game, but my little boy's giving me reason to stay positive. He's speaking now and currently can't get enough of saying "Daddy" ... even when his mama goes to get him from his naps  Joe |

Coach, that's all the more reason to quit the bad habits....also coaches use spf 50-70 for max results or even zink oxide clear seems to work the best,wide brim hat and shades you might even look cool....lol
