Not much happened. He basically just did an update on the surgery date in which we have no idea yet.
Thank you for asking:) We got incredible news!! My husband’s PET scan was negative for any metastatic cancer! Surgically removing the lump on his forearm and the sentinel lymph node got rid of the Merkel cell. We were disappointed to hear that he’s not able to have immunotherapy to stop a reoccurrence. He will be having radiation but we don’t know what treatment will look like until we see radiation oncologist next week. We are feeling very blessed and grateful!
