We went to the surgeon on Friday,,,he confirmed that there is "something:" in the left kidney or adrenal gland that was not there before and that theyr is still fluid in the left lung and at least 2 enlarged lymph nodes in the aortal area. Dad is scheduled for a PET scan on Tuesday and then we go back to the onc on Thursday and the surgeon Friday. He has already said he will not do chemo no matter what, and depending on what they can offer him surgically, may or may not do that. He (and I) trust Dr. Didolkur (the surgeon) and Dr. Dharmasena (our internist), so after the PET and the onc appointment, we will talk to both of them and decide what to do. Best case would be that the kidney or adrenal on the left would come out intact, with whateever is in there being contained...worst case would be it has spread and surgery would not be an option. Please continue praying for Dad.....I can tell he is worried about it.
