Welcome @rkfeeley. I'm glad to hear that Mike's story led to your husband researching more about endoscopic mucosal resection (EMR). Mike isn't a member of Mayo Clinic Connect (yet), so I cannot connect you with him directly. However, @fastrategizer and @sbee may be able to share their experiences with you.

How is your husband doing?

Thanks for your reply and I will try to connect with the others you mentioned. After receiving a second opinion from a surgical oncologist, it was deemed that my husband would be a candidate for that procedure. His cancer stage is T1a and no metasis has been identified through PET or CT scans. On March 2 he will undergo an EMR at UMHealth's Sylvester Cancer Institute in Miami where we live. We will update after the procedure.
