Dad went to his Oncologist appointment today in Charlotte and he laid out the plan of attack. Dad has to have another CT Scan of the liver to re-evaluate the 4cm spot that was seen prior to surgery. If it is at 6cm or larger then it has to come out, if not, they will continue to watch it. Next step is infusion pump (port) in the chest, chemo every 2 weeks for 6 months. He also has a chance to go into a FDA approved trial if he qualifies. All based on pathology report from surgery.
Dad is headed to Duke Tuesday for a 2nd opinion and to also see how far off the 2nd MD is from the 1st. Dad says he is tired from worrying. Thanks to everyone for keeping us in your prayers.
