Cadaver bones, huh? Well I never heard or read about that one! That would put a different spin on things. I wonder what the protocol for that would be? Would the bone marrow have to match? I'll have to get to googling. I'm all for keeping everything focused on the area of cancer and not having to worry about other body parts healing that were used to reconstruct. You know what I'm trying to say? Believe me when I say "I" my thoughts and intentions are focused on Carol, her treatments, options and healing processes. Tuesday will tell what options she'll have.
Unfortunately you can add Carol to the people you know of with recurrences in 3 months.
