My cancer has returned last year with a large tumor in my right lower leg and it spread to my lungs. Chemo is keeping my lungs under control.
Now this ….
We met with the ortho surgeon today. He feels that he can get clean margins and have room for a "flap" (reconstruction process) by doing a below the knee amputation. As long as Chuck does well, he will only spend a night or 2 in the hospital. Surgeon says Chuck will meet with prosthetics b4 surgery, and the goal is to have him on a temporary leg within the 1st 2 months!! Chuck has a lot to do prior to surgery day, and of course, have to have insurance approval. Looking at the end of May through mid-June for the chop date. Will let you know when we do. ❤️
June 18th will be surgery day.
