UCSF Consultation

After waiting for what seems like forever my Dad finally met with a neurosurgeon at UCSF. Dr. Theodosopoulos's evaluation of the scan is that it is a malignant brain tumor. He wants to remove the tumor next Wednesday provided his full body pet scan shows no additional tumors. If the scan is clean he will schedule him for an awake crainiotomy next Wednesday morning followed by radiation and oral chemotherapy.

Dads pet scan is scheduled for this afternoon at 1:30 at St. Helena Hospital. At noon they are told the machine broke and can't do the scan.  Now furiously trying to find another place to get the scan done.
