I got a text from Pete. He had gone to Memorial Sloan-Kettering CC in NYC by himself to get the results of his first follow-up CT scan. All he said in his text was that he will need chemo and that he would tell me more when he got home because he was waiting to see another doctor.
I felt numb. He didn't mention another surgery, so I assumed that the cancer had not returned to the original site. With soft tissue sarcoma, the lungs are the most likely place where this form of cancer will metastasize.
He had just started back to school this summer, completed both courses with A's. Things were starting to look up for him, he was getting ready to register for the fall semester and was talking about what he would like to do when he completes his degree.
Sometimes life bites.
