        Hi

         

        I just read your post and I was amazed as I have the exact same situation. My 11 year old daughter was diagnosed with an atypical spitz tumor on her scalp. We are also sening her slides to UCSF and geting another opinion. We meet next week with 2 plastic sugeons to schedule her surgery to obtain clear margins. I am curious on where things are at with your daughter and what you have earned since our situations are so similar. Any advise????Thanks
