How serious is my "invasive well-differentiated squamous cell carcinoma, involving biopsy border" diagnosis?

aqua999
I have been diagnosed with "invasive well-differentiated squamous cell carcinoma, involving biopsy border". How serious is this? It is located about one inch below ear and 1 inch diagonally below jawline. I also take an immunosuppressant (100mg mercaptopurine for Crohn's Disease) for an unrelated condition, which I understand can make the cancer more serious. From what I have read, because of its location this is quite serious. Am I going to die?
