I was hoping to post in this thread. ;)
My surgery went great. They took out the tumor and did pathology which came back cancer, but superficial. That means they got everything they could when they went in and the cancer hasn't penatrated any further. Next step is a few courses of immune therapy to kill any microscopic cells that may have been left over then another biopsy to make sure nothing is growing back, but they expect me to recovery fully. This has really made my Christmas to say the least! ;D
Thanks to everyone for their thoughts and prayers, I really, truly, appreciate it. :)
