I went in for my appointment with my Oncologist at UCLA. I met Brian and Eric over there – I’m glad they came to lend some support. The first doctor (a resident) who came to see me was awesome! Same with Dr. Wainberg; really nice people working there...

As for the report from my oncologist (Dr. Wainberg): I was stage 3 with some lymph node infected tissue but no metastasis. At least I was not at stage 4, which I thought I was at. Whew! The problem is that it went to my lymph nodes – and that is not good, I was not expecting that at all.
