Will help you pray Robert. DD
She's home now.
Doctor cut the orders for this evening. Still not out of the woods yet, not by along shot, but she's home.
Still praying for Sarah. How's she doing?
We're both scared s***less, David, but dealing with things as they come.
Went and saw our general practitioner on Wednesday, seeking some advice on questions we should be asking as we move along.
We found out the pathology report is back from the University of Rochester. The tumor is malignant, but the pathology report is "undiagnostic" as the neurosurgeon described it yesterday.
The U of R was able to tell us it's cancerous, but not which type of cancer. It narrowed it down to either a germ cell tumor or a lymphoma, which wasn't good enough for the neurosurgeon, who is growing impatient with an "either this or that" choice. He wants to know exactly which type so we can formulate a game plan and go from there.
So, knowing it's malignant we've decided it's time for an oncologist to come aboard. I take nothing away from the neurosurgeon - hard to with a man who's been in practice for 45 years - but an oncologist deals with this type of thing on a daily basis. Sarah and I both growing impatient with the idea of waiting any longer. An oncologist should be able to help us move in the right direction in determining which type exactly and formulating treatment options.
According to our GP a biopsy on her ovaries or her bone marrow should be able to narrow it down without going back into your head for invasive surgery, something our neurosurgeon is reluctant to do unless he positively has to.
