        Hi Mary…thank you for all the wonderful input. This all helps to keep my mind straight and also helps me feel not so alone. I’m at a cancer center who treats this cancer about 2-3 times per year, so though its few and far between, they’ve seen it, treated it and had success. I have a multi specialty team of 4 oncologists and a handful of nurses, social workers and coordinators for my care. I’m in great hands. But sometimes I feel they are ready for questions, but I’m not fluent enough in all this as to what to ask….all these suggestions above are so helpful! They’ve suggested immunotherapy after surgery, but we are still in the staging process. Thank you again.
