Re: Tumour gone after neo-adjuvant chemo?
Oh, I am so glad to hear the news, so glad the tumor went poof with treatment.
I can't answer about the surgery - I wondered the same myself. I think it is traditional to do surgery, but I would have to ask is it necessary. I'm sure the doctors will have information for you about this.
Oh, maybe she isn't stage IV - that would be wonderful news.
Wishing her No evidence of disease and a full recovery.
