        Thank you, Janner.  I am very sorry to learn about your Dad's lymph node—but I am really surprised that when people get older, things like this are slower to spread. 

        I don't know about a sentinel node biopsy, but I will ask the surgeon's office tomorrow when we go in for the prelim. tests.

        I wish you and your Dad only good things and will keep him in my heart.  Let me (us) know how he is doing?

        Thanks again for responding.
