My 91 year old mother has been diagnosed with Muceopideer Carincoma, and is scheduled to have the growth removed on January 6, 2011. I am concerned about the post operative side effects, therapies, etc. In addition, is this surgery advisable considering her age.
I would like to hear from people who have survived this type of surgery and the resulting
radio therapy treatments. Please share your exdperiences with me. Thank you.
