When the time came for the MRI, we were confident that everything would be fine. Marie had no other problems or side effects. We had been to one of the best hospitals in the world. Surly, everything was okay. When the results came back, we went to see the radiation oncologist. We were surprised, and we were not surprised with the results. There were things where the tumors had been. They could be new tumors, or something else. Something else? What does something else mean? The doctor didn't know and we didn't know.
Did the tumor morph into a new type of tumor? Was there scar tissue? Was something left behind from surgery? These were all questions that we had no answers to. All we knew was, what ever was there, it didn't belong there. The doctor said that he wanted to confer with our surgeon. He wanted another opinion. It was decided that he would get back with us, after they spoke.
We left the office with no knowledge of what Marie was facing. Or when we would know.
