Hi again James,
I think you are very wise in your thought process. Forgive my terrible memory, I'd forgotten you need to have a tumor(s) removed, that would affect my thoughts on possible treatment options also.
We cross each bridge as we come to it, one at a time, and I hope it's a comfort knowing you have good doctors to consult with along the way, and this caring bunch of friends on KA too!
Take very good care, we are all pulling for you everyday!
