Tribefan posted an update on Joanne that I saw on facebook. This iswhat he had to say.
Diagnosis, malignant level 3. Inoperable. The higher the number, 1-4 the worse it is. But medical staff was upbeat and we are going to try the most aggressive combination of radiation and chemo as medically allowed. They won't talk to us about odds until they get some genetic marker test back. In a few days. But as you know, she's a tough fighter.
