Joined: Feb 2007 Posts: 1,940 | I wish Robins surgeons had felt that way.Their confidence in just surgery and radiation was obviously misplaced and cost him a chance at survival.When he was diagnosed and staged he was expected to make a full and complete recovery ,but this disease is no respector of statistics or even expectations.
Hit it hard with everything you have and give youself the very best shot at beating it.
