... it was a very small tumor (9mm) and it was taken clean enough that the follow up will be one week of radiation in July.
I don't know if cancer will be eliminated or not, but there seems to be a lot better outcomes than there used to be.

The fight regrets coming at us.

(60,551 posts)My wife has had cancer twice, and the second time was a rare form that is always fatal. Here, oncologists call it the murderer. She was that one in ten thousand that actually survived it (now ten years ago).
A cheer to our durable spouses!

I hope you are well too. It's hard to be the partner, just watching and waiting, unable to affect the outcome.
