        Hey Steve,  just had my right leg amputated on June 7th b/c of Clear cell sarcoma which used to be known as soft tissue mealnoma. My tumor was in my foot anf was 2.7 cm. Anything greater than 5 cm is really bad. My tumoor was first removed in 09 and pet scans showed it coming back in my foot and ankle and biopsies cinfirmed so I amputated. Get the measurments of the tumor. Make sure the doctors do a sentinal Lymph node biopsi, this will tell if your cancer has spread. The tumor is in a bad spot and it looks like your gonna loose a good bit. A sarcoma specalist would probably take ypour whole arm and allot of your shoulder. Your Tumor is huge im sorry to say, If it is Clear cell sarcoma with a tumor that big you have a vey aggressive type and more tumors are sure to start showing up. Studies show tumors greater than 5 cm are more likley to spread through the lymph nodes and tumors take over. Dont take this as a joke please go very aggresseive because thats was a gigantic tumor and if tumors take over your body its not gonna be good. Look me up on youtube my name on there is Kmrosserjr i have documentaries and stuff and I would like to follow your story, Good luck Steve I will pray for you and your family.
