Melisa,
Gene was diagnosed July 3rd here at our local hospital with a turb, then in August another turb at the Cleveland Clinic to verify the first, surgery Sept. 14th, 3 months is the suggested time after diagnoses, no longer , I was concerned by the wait but I put my faith in our surgeons hands and believed he must know what he is talking about. And he did.
I had a stepmother situation with my dad, she had all the power, my mouth got me in alot of trouble but I am not sorry now. Sometimes she was WRONG, and blood is thicker than water, and surprisingly my dad let her know it under certain circumstances. I flew from Cleveland to Tucson 4 times 2 weeks each time to be with him, my sister and I stayed at a Country Inn suites, my dads condo wasn't set up for visitors, and we weren;t asked anyway by stepmom.. So we didn't care we had more freedom that way anyway. It can be a precarious situation..Stick to your guns,
in a nice way of course.....Ginger
