I don't know about his type of tumor. It sounds like you have a good doctor and have read to inform yourself. I sometimes think doctors sound nonchalant about surgeries because they are trying to keep the patient, the family and loved ones calm. When I had my mastectomy I thought they were trying to make it sound like a walk in the park. Your emotions are going like a nonstop roller coaster and until you experience the word "tumor" or "cancer" you cannot relate to the fear it invokes. Please let us know how his surgery goes. I will keep a candle lit. I light candles for everyone posting in our group.

I am really sorry about his step-dad. How is he doing? His mom is in my thoughts also. My heart hurts for her. All of you are in this together and we will do whatever we can to help.
