St Joseph's Hospital Relative had surgery had this hospital last year, now has cancer Tucson Arizona
My Grandmother had surgery last year at this hospital, and was recently diagnosed with cancer, and also had a mass the size of a cantalope. How is it that she was in the hospital last year at St Joseph's Hospital, for a 6 hour surgery, yet neither the mass, or cancer were found? I would say a mass the size of the cantalope would be kind of hard to notice, even in it's beginning stages.
Earlier this month a hysterectomy was perfomed to remove the mass, as well as attempt to prevent reoccuring UTI's that had been a ongoing problem. This wonderful women, who is about to turn 80 years old, is now facing starting chemo therapy next month to fight cancer as well, what a great birthday present. How is that a woman her age went for a 6 hour surgery at St Joseph's Hospital, and this was over looked? Great job St Joseph's Hospital.
