and already had 3 procedures today. Just from that they were able to find out that it's not pancreatic cancer, but lymphoma. Which isn't great, but it's much better than pancreatic cancer which is quite deadly and moves very fast. Her chances are much better w/ lymphoma.

By tomorrow they should have a preliminary dx and then they send out for molecular/dna testing, and we should have the results of that in 72 hours. So glad we - and she - did not have to wait another week or more for this news as we would have if we had stayed in upstate NY!

Thanks again for your kind wishes!
