Today I am going in for surgery to remove a tumor from my right lung. I feel it will work out for the best.

Victor,

my prayers are with you.
cancer is possibly the worst thing to go through and a lonely place to be.
but it's something to get through even though you're freaked out.
The big C is alot less of a bogey man than in the past.

if the docs keep postponing your surgery i hope it's because it's not too bad yet.
regardless i'd consider getting another opinion and/or doc.
three delays is two too many.

when my sweety came up with a tumor i just wasn't comfortable with her clown of a gynocoligist.
he gave her dangerous/bad advise and seemed to be planning the surgery by commitee.
he also was scheduling a month down the road which was way too long according to my research.

so we asked around and found a much better doc.
the new doc was so concerned he scheduled her for surgery within 10 days.
personally i am certain she did well because we found a better doc.

anyway i could go on but point made.
i wish you God Speed , Calmness and a Fast Recovery .

Once thank you one and all

Dave,
I've already made it known to my primary doctor, if the surgeon cancels one more time I'm going to Loma Linda
hospital which is a state of the art hospital. Vic.

Vic..
Go with the Best Hospital.
We are fortunate that in Ohio, we have some of the Best.
Loma Linda has always been considered a Great Hospital ..
I'd suggest going with it if you have a choice.
The Cleveland Clinic is by far the Best in Ohio..
I go there for anything REALLY serious.
Good Luck and Best Wish's..
Rick
