Well now our appt. has been moved up to oct.12. I know it is just a fisrt time visit but knowing the doctor that we really need to see is in this group of doctors lets me know that we are on our way to treatment finally. Now the next question is what kind of treatment will he have. The last doctor said he would do surgery first. He said it was so close to the bone that it might need to be cut in some way and he didn't do that. He also said that was his opinion, this doctor might want to do radiation and chemo. But whatever the start of the treatment is, it is a start.
