tuesday

Boyfriends family arrived Friday.
It's been non stop activity and some chaos.
Surgeries and procedures have been scheduled and then  canceled
due mostly to insurance denying this or that.........it's been stressful.
I think everything is set in stone again. Today an angiogram and then tomorrow
is surgery day.
The plan is for the surgeon to go through boyfriends trachea and down to the right lobe
then search behind a bunch of blood vessels for a lymph node that was suspicious on the pet scan and biopsy it. If biopsy is negative he will biopsy the nodule in the lower lobe. If that is negative he will proceed and remove the left upper lobe. If the areas are positive they will stop the surgery, send boyfriend home and begin chemo.
His only chance for survival is if they remove the left upper lobe.......
