No Surgery For Now

The surgeon has decided to postpone surgery for the time being due to the enlarged spleen causing high pressure in the liver.  She said surgery could do more harm than good at this point.  She is proposing chemo and radiation (she said it actually can work on this type of cancer) to at least shrink the tumor and consider surgery at a later date.  This plan could change as early as next week after she consults with some of her colleagues.
