Well, the back of neck lump has been excised, stitches out, seems to have healed well and is no onger 'pulling' on all the tissues/nerves etc. around it. But the original one on the left, which started growing late November, is now the size of a small plum--and beginning to look the same colour! Some net research tells me it could be 'fungating tumour' which hsn't yet stabroken through the skin to start 'fungating'. I think both Liz's Robin and Joan's Wally had this condition at the end. Does anyone know if this is likely to be the case and if so, can anything stop it/slow it to getting to the 'fungating' stage? I have about 6 others growing, at varying stages and various places but this one is SO visible and just seems to fit the descriptions.
