[quote=wheels]We will be praying for successful surgery and a speedy recovery. Will you have to have Chemo this time? [/quote]

Sharon, my doctors say that chemo is often done in conjunction with radiation. I have radiation before and apparently its rare for it to occur for a second time in the same area on the body. They're going to have a look at the tumour once removed and make a decision around then.

At least it hasn't spread. Docs are saying they're pretty sure it hasn't gone to the lymph nodes but they are going to remove them and check anyway. Pretty much like last time

To Gabe, yes, I'm in Brisbane Private hospital. I'm fortunate to have my wife and all my family in Brisbane.

Thanks again for reading,
