I had my appointment with surgeon this morning. He stated treatment would be partial nephrectomy. 20% chance mass is benign, however “standard of care” is to remove your kidney. I will now traipse around the country looking for someone to do it or May decide to stay with this surgeon. Decisions. Decisions. He stated he does about 20 partial nephrectomies a year, robotically. I have no idea if that is a lot or is too few. My wife, son and grandson have been on vacation this past month. They return this Thursday. They have no idea what has transpired. To have these conversations with you has eased my burden. You all are now part of “my family.” Blessings
