    Good thoughts

    We'll be sending you good thoughts and prayers.  Like the others have said, and as you probably know, with the size and grade of your tumor the odds of reoccurance are very small.  In any event, I understand the anxiety.  Keep us posted.

    Completely understand

    but given the early diagnosis, I'm quite confident Uncle NED will be paying you a visit.

    Best wishes and prayers being said,

    Donna~

    You are in the group with the best oncological outcome

    Among T1a renal cell carcinoma, independent risk factors including

    • tumors with aggressive biological potential
    • microvascular invasion
    • necrosis

    As you have none of these, so I am sure you will not see it again! Just enjoy life!

    I'm sure it all went well but

    I'm sure it all went well but the scanxiety is terrible. I was a wreck while waiting for results. I wish there was a law like there is with breast cancer that they have to let you know the results right away and not make you sweat it. I don't understand why there isn't for all cancers.
