[QUOTE="fit2btied, post: 801556, member: 6"] Drs. still haven't staged the cancer but it is fairly advanced. His kidneys are only functioning at about 10% and his left collarbone and several discs in his neck and back are pretty much just shell with tumors. They gave him 2 more units of blood this morning and he is scheduled for 5+ hours of surgery Monday. They are going to do a fusion in his neck using cadaver bone to replace one disc. They said the disc location is such that they will have to come in from both the front and back. They are then going to inject resin in 2 more discs in the neck, 3 in the middle spine, and 3 or 4 in the lower back. They are also going to fill the collarbone with resin. They hope this will take pressure off the nerves and eliminate some of the pain. He will then wear a front and back jacket/cage brace, or as he calls it - a ninja turtle shell. He tries to be optomistic but is pretty paranoid and just wants to come home. Please continue to keep him and the family in your prayers and thanks again! [/QUOTE]
