Good. Came home yesterday, still in pain. Doctors removed 60-70% of the tumor (couldn't get the rest because it was along an area with vital arteries). Now we wait for pathology to tell us just what the hell this thing is, and how we can treat it. The doctors seem to have thought that it is less and less likely that it was cancer...they were throwing around the term "Sclerosing Mediastenitis" (non-cancerous tumor)......so it's still a waiting game......hopefully next week we can begin treatment, whatever that may be. Keeping positive thoughts, and he has been very positive too, already planning his 21st birthday cruise in August, so I guess that's all we could ask for. Thanks for the concern Kelli!
