Dear everyone:

I had my appointment to see if I could have surgery.
The oncologist stated that the surgery could not be
done because I had spots on my lungs and two tumours
in my tummy and my three grapefruits in the pelvic
and lower abdomen. The sarcoma specialist was going
to see the scans the next day but I don't think it
was good news because I was just booked for a new
appointment the next week

Dear Catherine,

When my mom had appointment with oncologist she had the same situation as
you now. Doctor said NO surgeries because are tumors in a lot of places.
My mom then tried a lot of chemo but nothing works. Tumors were growing and
growing...

We went to see a surgeon after that. And surgery was not a problem for him.
I want to say that you can always find a GOOD surgeon who could do it!

If you will have more questions or need more details please let me know.

Thanks,
Yelena
