Surgery date for husband’s new cancer

Dec 18 will be the big day. Small bowel resection for a 3.5 x 3 stromal tumor. The surgeon wants to also remove his appendix for a related reason but only as a precaution. Using this site on an iPhone is enough to drive me insane, so I’ll update more as we move forward. Happy Thanksgiving to everyone celebrating

We’re hopeful 3.5 cm in 9 months is early enough!!!stub1969 said:Caught early
So happy this was caught early. Good luck and keep us updated.

Sigh!! So hard not knowing exactly what we are dealing with, with total certainty. All we’ve heard so far is positive news, but without a biopsy I stress. New mantra: Whatever it is, I’ll do it.

Sending thoughts and prayers to you and your husband. I think the stress is worse for the caregivers.. you both got through the first diagnosis together and positive thoughts for this one.
