Three years ago, when George was 82 years old, he noticed a small white patch at the back of his tongue that was very sore.
After visiting his dentist and being referred to a specialist, a biopsy and scan confirmed that George had mouth cancer. Shortly after, he received an operation to remove some of his lymph nodes, which was successful and required no further treatment. George was referred, diagnosed, treated and declared cancer free within three months!
