We had our appointment today with both the surgeon and the sarcoma specialist at City of Hope. Dr. Femino agrees that it looks like a bone cyst but said that since he is already doing surgery on August 20th he would do a core needle biopsy at that time. The surgery will be in 20 days. So we are staying positive and plan to have tons of fun these next 20 days! We also had another scare this week. For 24hrs we thought my Dad had melanoma! The dermatologist from Kaiser read the result on the computer but the pathologist called the next day and it is actually just a-typical cells! PHEW! That is pre-cancer and he will have more tissue removed but thank God it is not melanoma!
