Got the GREAT news this afternoon. The biopsy came back no cancer. It is, however, a benign tumor - like a polyp. The treatment options are a half dose of radiation. A full dose is 13 treatments, like Bubba got, but Otis only needs 6. He has had 5 already, so will get his last dose tomorrow and then he gets to come home. He will have to have another Cat Scan in 6 weeks so we can see what the tumor is doing, and there is always the possibility of surgery to remove it. The doctor did say that the smaller the tumor is the easier it would be to take out surgically. So we are moving forward now.
Thank you God!!
