We got a call from the surgeon today; the surgeon talked to the oncologist and agreed that we should proceed with chemotherapy prior to surgery. What this means is that we are going to try to shrink the tumor prior to surgery. Chemotherapy is administered via a port which is surgically implanted under the collar bone. The port procedure is an outpatient surgery and is scheduled for Thursday, March 4th.
We will discuss when exactly chemotherapy will commence and if Holly will be up for Spring Training in our appointment with the oncologist tomorrow.
More to follow on Tuesday.

Holly,
ReplyDeleteThinking of you today, and saying a little prayer. I love all the pink in your office. Maybe you should try a hat like I have on. That is when I was in Seattle!
Love
