Dear Lisamarie43, I'm so sorry that you are in the situation that you are in. I hope you get the answers you need on Tuesday, the waiting must be agonising. The unknown and lack of answers I have found to be so hard on this journey with my husband. Good luck on Fri with the radiotherapy, hope you feel the benefits in terms of it as soon as possible. Take care x
