I don't know what we would have done without the caring and compassionate people we've met here. My son and I are from the Knoxville area, too. He went to the UT Medical Center which has a Comprehensive Cancer Center and everyone there has been extraordinarily helpful. It's good you are going with your wife on Wednesday. It helps to have other people with you so that you can take notes and make sure you have all your questions answered. Has your wife already had a biopsy? It is a difficult time, but you and your wife can get through it. There are lots of people here that will help. Let us know how the appointment goes.
