Brandon had his bone scan today, which went well. Dr. Carlstrom now wants to take a biopsy of the tumor to see exactly what he’s dealing with. He still says that it is NOT cancer, so that we are thankful for. Now Dr. Carlstrom is saying that surgery may not be the best thing given the size, location, and surgery in that area is very bloody. He did mention that radiation to the tumor is a possibility to try to shrink it. So now we will wait for the biopsy and go from there.
