Kate- You are truly amazing and an inspiration to patients and caregivers alike. Even though things didn't go as smoothly as we thought they would, my husband doesn't regret the surgery as well as all the treatments he has been through. You have to give this beast the best fight you have available. That way you know you've done all you could do. No regrets or what ifs-no matter what the final outcome.
