Until a firm diagnosis is made, we won't know anything about prognosis, etc. Treatment is likely to be chemo, so strong that it may require hospitalization. My dad is the type of guy who is so rarely sick and never complains, and it breaks my heart to think of him having to endure this.
Thank you for your prayers so far and PLEASE keep praying!!!!

Kara, my guess is it's being sent to Dr Christopher Fletcher at harvard. That's wh did the pathology on m husband. Did they sa histiocyic sarcoma? That's what my husband had his leg and it's the rarest sarcoma.
