Christy,

I feel I must apologize. When I agreed that things didn't sound good, I didn't mean to imply that the situation is hopeless. Chemo and radiation could very well shrink the tumor. For some reason, I thought this was a recurrence. I re-read your posts and saw that she was just diagnosed in August. That changes things somewhat. It is still very serious, but a recurrence would be worse. Since this is new, she should be able to have a full complement of chemo and RAD. There are many survivors here who have had their tumors shrunk down to nothing.

You must keep pressing the doctors to take action NOW! There is no reason for them to not have the biopsy results yet. Call every day and demand it.

Again, I am so sorry for jumping the gun. I should have reviewed your posts before replying instead of assuming this was a recurrence.

Chagrinned,
Rosie
