Even the best get confused
Great news this morning! It turns out that yesterday when Sugarbaker told us that he had to leave clips around the aorta to mark cells for radiation later he was confused about which family he was talking to. This morning he clarified. He took the diaphragm, but it was a clean resection (no clips left behind to mark cells). As he says they know that there are always some cells left, which is why they do the hot chemotherapy, but in dads case they removed all visible cells. We feel sad for the other family, but are elated about our good news.
