@lkhanson, this is hard news to digest. I'm tagging a few kidney cancer warriors, like @bomed @pml @nang @sally0526 @pcondon @collegeprof @azkidney57 to join this discussion.

While you're waiting for more information about the new mass found on your son's other kidney, let's talk mom to mom. I just put on the kettle. Imagine I've just brought you a cup of steaming tea. What's going through your mind? How is your son handling this news? When will he meet with the doctor to find out more? How are YOU doing? Really.
