Hi All,

If you read Barbara's post earlier, please be advised that there was a misunderstanding with the original phone call, and Barbara called back and learned that he is not dead, but dying, and her computer won't let her log on to correct her post, so I edited it for her.

I'm very sorry to hear such sad news.

Love,
Tex

I'm so sorry, Oma. :hug: You will both be in my prayers.

I hesitate to suggest this, but you might consider a second opinion. I was diagnosed with a brain tumor almost two years ago. A second, more experienced doctor suspected it was calcified. A subsequent CAT scan confirmed that it was, and I don't need any treatment. It was a tremendous relief, of course.

Gloria, I believe that Barbara mentioned during the phone conversation that it had metastasized. Of course, as you say, a second opinion can sometimes spell the difference between life and death, in such a grim situation.
