Tomorrow Billy travels to Sloan Kettering with his brother Micheal. Having a "fresh" set of ears, and someone with more Knowledge of Nancy's illness should be of great benefit. He has an appointment for a pulmonary test (breathe in tube = test lungs) on Wednesday. Then the 21st is the first day of chemo. We tried today to have the chemo moved to this week. Unfortunately they need to wait for all of these test results before they can start the treatments. The need to move up was brought on by concerns from this weekend. He had troubling symptoms that weren't present before, along with an additional lump found on the other side of his body... Generally 1 lump is stage 1, more than one lump on the same side of the body is stage 2, lumps on both sides of the body moves you to stage 3... along with the additional pain and other symptoms, we would rather go sooner than later... ill post more on Wednesday after we hear what SK says..
thanks

Billy,
I feel for you Billy. You are truly a great competitor on the softball field and in life. I have know you many years and you will always compete at every level and give it 150% all the time. This will be your hardest competition to date but if anyone can do it, you can. I admire you and what you are going through it is no picnic but you will find your way through this. Hope to see you pitching on a softball field near us soon.
Jim Dowling
We love you and Billy! We'll say our prayers for you! You rock! Good luck!
Love Peaches, Sally and K
