B^%#@%r

Or words to that effect. Basically. 

My Mum had the results back this week and unfortunately they were not as good as we had hoped. The surgeon had tried to remove all of the diseased tissue, but apparently it went deeper than expected. Which means that in about 8-10 weeks, when she is completely healed from the last surgery, she will have to go under the knife again to get the remainder removed. 

However, one light in the darkness is the fact that my Mum did not talk about it having spread anywhere else. Which is a big phew. But other than that: B^%#@%r!

    1. Yes, and we're keeping fingers crossed that between now and the next operation, it will remain in its place.

    1. Or careful surgery. I don't think my Mum would be too happy with a howking oot (if it means what it sounds like)!!

  6. Sorry to hear it wasn't as successful as hoped but now they know what needs to be done there will be a higher rate of success during the next op.
