I finally got to meet the oncologist, Dr. Richard Lee. He is brilliant and kind and spent almost three hours with me explaining cancer, my cancer, various treatment options and what would work for me. He explained that based on the size of my tumor(s) and no indication of any spread, I'm at a clinical stage 1 or stage 2. We can take curative measure to make this cancer go away, beginning with chemotherapy and continuing with immunotherapy for the rest of the year.
I left his office feeling at ease, that I had such a wonderful care team working together to help me get better. I even met with the nurses who educated me on the chemotherapy process, what the treatments would look like and how to take care of my body through the experience. Adelante!
