Hi @erickasears, I moved your discussion to the Sarcoma Support Group here: https://connect.mayoclinic.org/group/sarcoma/ to help you connect with others with NTRK1-3 fusion.

Your mentioning your emotions made me think of this related discussion that you might wish to join:
- How do you, as a parent, deal with the anger? Son has sarcoma https://connect.mayoclinic.org/discussion/how-do-you-as-a-parent-deal-with-the-anger/

Such a gut punch for find out that another mass has been found in his hip. As a parent, you just want to take this suffering away and protect your child. I get that. May I ask how old he is? Some cancers with NTRK1-3 fusions are treated with TRK inhibitors. Is that option been discussed for your son?

@colleenyoung yes he was taking Gen 1 drug it worked for 3 years and came back . Had surgery then 7months later came back again they gave him on a Gen2 drug now it’s just hard to understand this type of cancer there isn’t a lot out there about it …
