answered prayer. big answered prayer.
We are thrilled, elated and humbled to have heard back from Dr. Bruce Haughey in St. Louis already today. We feel blessed that he is willing to see us, review Mike's case and possibly perform the robotic surgery to remove the cancer. We meet with Dr. Lydiatt again on Tuesday, March 8th and will be coordinating with Dr. Haughey's staff as well. This is the email that brought tears to our eyes... and a happy dance to our feet:
Hello Karen
Sorry to hear about this, but I would be very happy to see Mike. However it will have to wait until I'm back in St. Louis. Ironically I'm in the southern hemisphere giving talks on just what he has.Yes we have established and published a protocol for his problem/stage of disease, which I can explain if you come. We've recently published another, broader multi center study which validated the results in the paper that Bill was probably referring to. I shall be able to see Mike after 3/14 when I return, and Ill cc my nurses with this so they can get in touch and arrange an appointment. With folks from out of town we often have an appointment, followed a couple of days later with an OR session for the surgery. If you would please send your husband's scan discs ahead to my office in st Louis as well...they will take it from here.
Best,
Bruce
