Oncologist, redux

Well, we've been and gone. Surgery is scheduled for day after tomorrow, Thursday.

The oncologist says he doesn't want to give us lots of false hope, but there are many things in our favor. One is that the growth is in a nicely operable area, and another is that he has shown absolutely NO clinical signs that are normally seen with a transitional cell tumor. He also mentioned that since Moe had a bladder stone, there are sometimes growth associated with those, but that it was much safer to assume a tumor.

At any rate, they're going in on Thursday to see what it is. His bladder will be resected and he'll be in the hospital overnight.

So right now, we're being hopeful. Yay!
