> Dear Kent Field:
>
> This past week I met with both my surgeon and my oncologist and also
> received copies of all the paperwork generated on my case. I was surprised
> to learn that the second portion of the tumor, the portion that was resected
> at UAB Medical Center June 30th, was a high grade (stage III)
> leiomyosarcoma. If you'll recall, the earlier UAB path report on the piece
> of tumor we brought back with us from Honduras was classed as low grade
> (stageI-II).
>
> I have commucnicated with Dr. Jonathan Lewis concerning my case. Though he
> is unable to "give any sound advice" without seeing me and my radiologic and
> pathologic data, he did endorse the UAB team and offered his services if I
> should care to make arrangements to see him. Thank you for your help on my
> case.
