I noticed a bump on Bella's chest about a month ago and took her in to be seen. The base here is very short staffed so there are only 2 ped drs. One of which is Bella's regular dr and i like a good bit but they were booked so she saw a family practice dr who dismissed it as a malformation of her bones and cartilage. This did not sit with me so I made an appt with her ped and just got her in. He ped said it was not bone and that it looked vascular she sent us for an u/s on Mon. I got the results yesterday. Bella has a tumor on her chest. They are not sure what kind as in malignant or not.
I am waiting for a call froma ped surgeon from UC Davis to call and we will take her in. Bella's ped here on the base recommeneded that she do one surgery to remove it not a biopsy and surgery later to take it out.
So please be thinking of us. I have no idea what to think or do and waiting is not something i take easily. Please just be thinking of us and if you pray add us on. thanks
