Thanks for the search references on renal cell carcinoma.
I'm doing more research to be ready with questions on 9/14 first appointment with surgeon. Beyond that I'm working on new website http://DHKCS.ORG to document my kidney cancer story. I also have http://DHECS.ORG which documents my esophageal cancer story.

Don, I just read your esophageal cancer journey on your page.

Yesterday I was speaking with a medical student, at the request of my nephrologist. A comment I made in passing was, "Well, we are given two kidneys. We can get by on one. So, we have a spare, either for us, or to share with someone." It really got me thinking! And as a side story, a friend of mine donated his spare to his sister. Fifteen years after that he needed a kidney, was placed at top of the list, and was transplanted two weeks later! Miracles happen everyday.
