It was not good news. The tumor did not shrink during chemo, and we were told it is inoperable and incurable. They are planning on radiation next and the goal is pain relief and to keep the tumor from growing any larger. The CT scan showed the tumor the same size, but it also showed that the cancer has not spread to any other part of his body. My son wants to do the radiation, but if the issues (pain/tumor growth) don’t get better, radiology oncologist suggested perhaps more chemo afterwards. If the radiation doesn’t affect the tumor, we will consider more chemo, but we will also then go for a second opinion about his case. Keep praying, we are still hoping for a miracle and not giving up the fight.
