No Surgery

Just now I spoke with Mave, who drove from Minneapolis this morning to be at the appointments with Sylv and Mom.

Dr. Cliby is not recommending surgery at this time.

Here's why: first, there is a high risk of complications that could occur during surgery. Second, the CT scan showed that the masses were no longer visible. And for these reasons, Dr. Preema re-affirmed during her evaluation that the chemo treatments can be discontinued.

The treatment plan will now shift to check-ups every two or three months at the Mayo Clinic.
