What is the Living Donor Process Like?

@gingerw I met with a surgeon on Thursday. He said the arteries to the spleen, stomach and liver are in the tumor so they cannot do surgery. In cases like that, they would do radiation and an oral chemo. Because of my kidney problems I cannot do the chemo. That leaves radiation without chemo. This is all so recent, I have not had much time to think. I may have to see what's available for clinical trials.

@marvinjsturing So much to wrap your head around. Can you go to Mayo?

You are in my thoughts today....

Hugs and peace to you, @marvinjsturing. When your mind settles down a bit, and you have time to think - I hope you can try to focus on knowing that you are in the best of care at Mayo.
