What's the results since his surgery?? I hope he came out of it alright. I didn't know if you had responded to his surgery in another topic, so I thought I'd ask here. My dad didn't have the option of surgery either because (too weak) and also it was so big and connected to major veins, etc. He had too high a risk of bleeding (and dying) during surgery. So... that's what I wanted to add. Don't know if you read in other messages, but he passed very quickly on Nov. 12th, 07. Good luck and I hope to hear how it all came out.

Thanks for the responses.
My Dad had PET scan done, that is how the tumors were found. Finally a urologist saw him yesterday. He says that the kidney needs to be removed asap, otherwise in his words "he will bleed to death"!! So, we have no other option now I guess. The oncologists had ruled out surgery initially as my Dad had become very weak, which is what worries me.
Thanks and regards.
