A Message From Matt Sozas Daughter, Stephanie Soza. Please Continue to Send Prayers. today went... not as planned. I was scheduled for surgery to remove new tumors found behind my liver, but it was abruptly cancelled. Before they opened me up, a camera was inserted laproscopically to check if the constant pain Ive been having is a result of adhesions from my prior surgery. On top of finding adhesions, the doctors found progression of the disease since my last scan done a little over 2 weeks ago. It has become dispersed throughout my lower abdomen again. They have removed samples of the tissues to biopsy so we can find out if they will be chemotherapy sensitive or not. The new plan now is to wait until the pathology report comes back, reschedule surgery so I can be cut from pelvis to sternum, and figure out a new chemo regiment if necessary. I did experience my first epidural catheter insertion today, which turns out is not so sweet. Apparently my spine has a slight curvature and it took them a few tries to get it in. Ouch. The catheter wasnt used and hasnt been removed yet, so I just am sitting here in the dark with a piece of plastic jabbing out of my spine. Dont worry, its not uncomfortable or anything guys. Also, Im trapped in a double room with some lady who is not totally stable. Halp. Im scared. — feeling old.
