Dear Group,
My husband and I have been lurking on this group for about 3 weeks, ever
since he was diagnosed with a deep lobe parotid gland tumor. All of the
outpatient testing was inconclusive, so Monday the 22nd, he goes in to have
the tumor removed, and possibly more (as in neck dissection)surgery right
then and there, depending upon what the pathologists see while he's still
under.
This tumor has been called "textbook"as in they talk about it in Med school,
but say you'll probably never see one in practice. This month, his doctor
has seen three.
Anyway, altho we don't know this disposition yet, it has been both
informative and comforting to read the messages. Informative, as we are
hospital virgins, and have gleaned so much info regarding dealing with
hospitals, ins. co., staff, doctors. It's comforting as we see over and
over the grace, strength, courage you all have. We know that whatever the
outcome we are not alone.
God bless you all through the holidays and every day and THANK YOU,
Sally and Charlie TIlson
