Went to 3 appointments with Drs today, all in the same building, my youngest came along because Rita's daughter is a worthless piece of shit.
Yes I said that, her mother sees it and has for quit a while. Wound not have went with Rita's daughter with out zip ties and duct tape anyway.
We are doing some more testing and waiting on approval from Medicare on new experimental treatment that sounds like best route. Very big success from first small study. Besides it will help give data that may help people later. That is first choice.
Second is standard radiation and chemo, with all the side affects of that, with that hoping it takes it down.
Third is if new is approved and don't work plan 2 will be next step.
Plan 4 is if above only works part way is removal by surgery which does not give here more than 70% chance with likely a long surgery, maybe months in hospital and a crappy quality of life.
I will of course support her with what ever she decides or is forced to do but I also told her if it was me option 4 is unacceptable to me and would not be done, but that decision if it comes is months away.
I am pushing her to an assisted living apartment when the kid turns 18 and moves out, one that will take a dog. It's not like jail or the army where you have to have a pass. Put my outdoor cook gear in a storage place if no room where we end up. Brother has all my guns except my pistol in one of his safes and youngest and her hubby have a bit one. Loading gear could go to brothers place too, he has room.
Not for sure yet, youngest wants my pickup, and me go to something smaller since my gear load will be light unless someone wants to haul it all and provide help. Not giving up, just trying to plan.
