I am learning something new every day it seems! I am wondering if this situation somehow coincides with the term "inoperable".

I know I've heard it said before that the cancer was at such a precarious place/stage etc. that to operate would cause further spread of the disease.

My friend is a good example of that, the Doc's told her she is "inoperable" and I wonder about the correlation between that term and the conditions talked about here. Maybe it is not so much the anesthesia medication itself; but, the issue of tampering with any diseased tissues that cause it to spread.

Interesting! Thanks for the info.
