Spindle Cell Sarcoma of the Kidney

_Catarina_

At the end of 2015 my dad who is only 54 years old was diagnosed with a rare form of kidney cancer called Spindle Cell Sarcoma. In October of 2015 he went for a check up and was told there was a mass on his kidney over the next few months he was going back and forth to the hospital for different checks. In February 2016 he finally had his kidney removed and the mass which turned out to be bigger then his kidney, after the surgery he felt normal again but we waited nervously to find out the results on the tumor turns out it was cancerous... the doctor said we should take him to the best hospital in NY which is Sloan Kettering. We set a appointment and met with the doctors there they ended up doing more tests on him and it turns out the spot they removed the kidney and tumor that another tumor grew back so now they are started chemo and he has to go every three weeks to NY for chemo treatment they also found a small tumor on his liver and lung those arent cancerous but the doctors are hoping the chemo will kill them or shrink them. My dad is stage 3 right now I'm trying to stay postive that the cancer will go away! The doctors said with his type of cancer he might have only 5 years.... but I;m really hoping this chemo works and lives to 100!
