@56899t52 my husband has opted to not have the surgery either. He is 79 years old and T3MONO. Last biopsy showed "suspicious cells". Not exactly cancer, but they know the cells will evolve to cancer since it was there before chemo and radiation. His local oncologist will be starting Folfox Chemo + immunotherapy. We have a call today with Mayo to try to get a second opinion about treatment plan.
