Dr. Jerome Canady resected my 76 yr. old mom's tumor 6 days ago with great success. He removed 50% of her liver and the bile ducts and I believe gall bladder. She is doing well and probably going home tomorrow (Monday). She will need chemo/radiation for approximately 3 months to insure this hideous tumor does not return. This kind of surgery can be done!!! Her bilirubin is now 4 and her enzymes are almost normal. Please know that if your loved one has any kind of GI cancer there is help. It's in the person of Dr. Canady. He is the most dedicated, passionate surgeon. He never left the hospital the night after my mom's surgery, keeping an eye on her and has been with her every day since. I can not thank this man enough. He is a savior!!! Thanks to him I will be having more Thansgivings and Christmas's with my mom.
Very grateful daughter,
Melody
