Bless Your Heart

My cousin has been emailing us every day on my Uncle A’s status. They had originally found 3 tumors in his brain. Then they found nodules in his lungs as well. So they moved him to a cancer center in Tampa. After they got settled at Moffitt, the doctors determined the best course of action to take would be to remove the tumors from the brain. They removed the largest tumor yesterday from the right frontal lobe. He came through the surgery just fine and is in recovery. On Wednesday, they plan to remove the other 2 tumors, which are located at the back lower part of the brain, one on the left and one on the right. A biopsy is being completed now, but the Dr. indicated the tumor was not formed in the brain but was metastatic and more than likely spread from the lungs. They will determine further treatment after the biopsy and second surgery are complete. He’s still in good spirits, so that’s good. He’s hanging in.
