hi and thanks for your interest,i went to n.y.c. for surgery,i'd be more specific but i don't want to get into trouble.i wish i'd gone to buffalo the doctor there was much more realistic in his assessment.he told me i may be eating thru a tube for as long as six months,the doctor in n.y.,given the same test results said i should be eating in two weeks,so of course i took the easy way out.which turned into the shock of my life.i had previous radiation twice, a total around7500units,so no rad. or chemo was suggested.thank you tim stoj for your prayer.
