9:30 AM Tony, Rachael and I leave the house......spend day waiting in MD's offices..... 5:00PM home. Crash and sleep.
Today's news:
1) The biopsy area is healing and the stitches are out.
2) The biopsy confirms the lesion is more of the breast cancer, it has just spread out.
3) The lesion is sitting on a sinus drain in the brain that makes it too risky to remove. There is more chance of damage to surrounding tissue from removal than leaving it.
4) The next step is a very focused radiation. The radiation may reduce future growth by as much as 80%. The results will be cumulative over time. Not - BAM!!!!! and blast that thing to pieces. How much time?? It depends.....
5) Using brain lab radiation technology as a guide, a treatment plan will be developed. I meet with the Radiologist 8:00 AM Monday, Today the surgeon ordered a brain lab MRI - they will talk.
