Feb 2018

the narrative these whackjobs are trying to spin.

I cannot believe they did surgery and did not diagnose the kidney. WatF is this website? bettyellen Feb 2018 #1
The website is not the story. laserhaas Feb 2018 #35
I don't believe this story as styled.* Wait for Hortensis Feb 2018 #181
I had a kidney removed without a definite diagnosis csziggy Feb 2018 #77
Good post. JNelson6563 Feb 2018 #79
Thank you csziggy Feb 2018 #80
From what I can gather, kidney masses in young children are likely cancerous as well. LisaL Feb 2018 #87
In the video, the woman says its stage four cancer and that they have no diagnosis- bettyellen Feb 2018 #156
The article says this: pnwmom Feb 2018 #164
Since the mass was large they were preparing the family for the likihood of removal- there is also bettyellen Feb 2018 #170
It's a 4 hour drive between Las Vegas and Los Angeles, which would have been faster pnwmom Feb 2018 #176
Youre skipping over the part where they get to LA and they still do not want surgery thats been bettyellen Feb 2018 #180
They didn't want the open surgery without a biopsy first. And they were shocked to see pnwmom Feb 2018 #185
But they didnt want another American doctor. And there was a biopsy done but they claim they still bettyellen Feb 2018 #186
I don't blame them for not trusting American doctors after what they'd been put through. pnwmom Feb 2018 #188
She lied about what they put her through . They needed to make sure that kid was going to a doctor bettyellen Feb 2018 #194
How do you know she lied? That's the same thing people were saying pnwmom Feb 2018 #206
When they talked about taking her home to die is when you trust thats exactly what they might do. bettyellen Feb 2018 #211
Concur...Nothing was imminent death threatening laserhaas Feb 2018 #215
Its spread to her lungs as they suspected. So any delay in treatment was dangerous. They believe bettyellen Feb 2018 #286
But why.... VivienneLove Feb 2018 #348
The mom delayed it moving to LA, and maybe they were better surgeons there but she didnt want to go bettyellen Feb 2018 #351
Makes no sense VivienneLove Feb 2018 #352
I think she was upset the cancer might be advanced and demanded proof of cancer bettyellen Feb 2018 #353
Right in the video VivienneLove Feb 2018 #354
Its unfortunate those asshole latched on to her and encouraged her to defame the doctors. They bettyellen Feb 2018 #355
Well, of course you can't diagnose cancer unless you do a biopsy. LisaL Feb 2018 #197
But they had the girl OPENED UP already and decided not to take it out. pnwmom Feb 2018 #218
Doing a biopsy on a Wilms tumor is a bad idea. Hassin Bin Sober Feb 2018 #195
Yea, I don't think it's good news that they didn't remove the kidney or the tumor when they opened LisaL Feb 2018 #198
It seems the mom wanted a guaranteed result before committing to surgery ... bettyellen Feb 2018 #214
But the surgeon, AFTER he opened her up, decided not to remove the kidney. pnwmom Feb 2018 #224
Many - proper - questions laserhaas Feb 2018 #231
The other kidney and abdominal wall are inspected and reviewed during the surgery... Hassin Bin Sober Feb 2018 #233
What I hated the most here was seeing so many people, based on so few facts, pnwmom Feb 2018 #235
educational post Dorian Gray Feb 2018 #347
And they are reportedly giving the child chemo-why? Just for fun? LisaL Feb 2018 #234
The mother is comfortable now with the better care the daughter is getting in LA. pnwmom Feb 2018 #237
+100 This is the key info sharedvalues Feb 2018 #327
Except the doctors opened her up and then decided NOT to remove the kidney! pnwmom Feb 2018 #162
They wanted to delay biopsy for a third opinion in Mexico. LA was the second opinion. bettyellen Feb 2018 #167
No. The parents wanted proof of cancer before removing the kidney. pnwmom Feb 2018 #168
Biopsying that sort of cancer can be very dangerous. Codeine Feb 2018 #169
I thought it was obvious the mass was so large they felt removal would likely be needed bettyellen Feb 2018 #171
I have zero sympathy for the mom. Codeine Feb 2018 #172
And whoever wrote it is lying about the hospital and claiming theyre human trafficking and bettyellen Feb 2018 #175
Wow, way to be judgmental. She has a child who could have cancer pnwmom Feb 2018 #226
I think most of the hateful banter, is due to the fact laserhaas Feb 2018 #232
Obviously not, since the UCLA hospital decided not to remove the kidney after all. n/t pnwmom Feb 2018 #192
I really don't think that's good news. LisaL Feb 2018 #200
Inoperable? Why? My father had kidney cancer, they diagnosed it, and then removed it. pnwmom Feb 2018 #202
Take a wild guess. LisaL Feb 2018 #203
It had spread already? Or worse, they feared mom would sue them? bettyellen Feb 2018 #208
That's what I am thinking. LisaL Feb 2018 #210
Was your father's cancer in both kidneys? Hassin Bin Sober Feb 2018 #219
That would make sense, wouldn't it? LisaL Feb 2018 #256
But UCLA didn't take out the kidney, once they opened her up. pnwmom Feb 2018 #193
And the parents claim weekend later not to know biopsy results. Liars. bettyellen Feb 2018 #196
The protocol calls for removal unless the tumor is discovered to be inoperable. LisaL Feb 2018 #294
She only ran into trouble trying to stop the surgery in LA though. She wanted to go to Mexico. bettyellen Feb 2018 #173
The mother was shocked when she got to LA and saw that they had already arranged pnwmom Feb 2018 #209
You assume the doctors didnt explain? And that the surgery was successful? Nope and nope. bettyellen Feb 2018 #220
Once they had her opened up, there was no reason not to remove the kidney IF she had cancer. pnwmom Feb 2018 #221
So you and Mom know better than the surgeons at UCLA and taking the kid home to die is their right? bettyellen Feb 2018 #223
No, I don't. But I'm not going to join the pile-on on the mother. The mother did NOT endanger pnwmom Feb 2018 #225
The mom is lying about not having a diagnosis and we know that much. bettyellen Feb 2018 #227
No, she isn't. They couldn't have a firm diagnosis till her lungs had been biopsied, pnwmom Feb 2018 #229
Agree.... laserhaas Feb 2018 #236
She said she knew nothing despite the biopsy of her kidney. And thats bullshit. bettyellen Feb 2018 #241
I didn't listen to the whole video so I don't know the context, but they were clearly trying to pnwmom Feb 2018 #244
You missed the part with her talking about taking the kid to Cali to die? bettyellen Feb 2018 #255
Normal people would be "hung up" on a $9500 cost to fly a child to LA pnwmom Feb 2018 #262
Keep ignoring that she said she was taking her home to die? Really now.... bettyellen Feb 2018 #273
She was freaking out based on the shock of what the doctors were telling her. But she was pnwmom Feb 2018 #277
Shes got a new fundraiser to stop the hospital from treating the child despite the cancer diagnosis bettyellen Feb 2018 #283
For the type of tumor suspected, biopsy isn't advised because it can spread the tumor. LisaL Feb 2018 #205
The plan was to remove the kidney and the tumor. Then they didn't. LisaL Feb 2018 #201
I think it could mean that they decided to just biopsy it. I don't think they saw pnwmom Feb 2018 #204
That's not what I think at all. LisaL Feb 2018 #207
A lot here doesn't make sense laserhaas Feb 2018 #216

Where do you see they got a second opinion. laserhaas Feb 2018 #44
They were in Vegas where they found the lump, then they went to LA... bettyellen Feb 2018 #59
A biopsy is the first step to determine if there is a malignancy, so I am not understanding the still_one Feb 2018 #78
I don't find it hard to believe. Most kidney tumors are cancerous. LisaL Feb 2018 #88
Appreciate the perspective. I didn't follow the links, but within the OPs I didn't see anything still_one Feb 2018 #92
Agree. And in some cases a biopsy can cause more trouble. Hassin Bin Sober Feb 2018 #100
There is a post up thread that lays it out. xmas74 Feb 2018 #90
Thanks. I will look for it. I assume the pathology report on the removed kidney showed a still_one Feb 2018 #93

they wouldn't be doing post operative chemo if it wasn't cancer. Hassin Bin Sober Feb 2018 #107
Apparently it is Wilms tumor, if you believe what is posted on facebook. LisaL Feb 2018 #326
The mother is very confused and trying to micromanage or avoid the surgery. bettyellen Feb 2018 #165
