Karen and Mark,

Thank you so much for your messages. After reading them, I called my dad and sister and everyone is in agreement that we should get a second opinion. Thanks so much. Regarding the not spreading issue, the doctor is highly respected in LA and he did say that. He stated it stays localized and does not spread to organs. That is what he said. Karen, what happened with your mom? I agree that we should do everything we can and I appreciate your advice. It means so much to me. Thanks again
Love
Stephany
