31. quite the opposite, I said that the cancer was insidious and
by the time it produces pain or symptoms it is often too late. It is quite possible that he is asymptomatic (without symptoms). Usually if you pick up a cancer in an asymptomatic patient, its very good news because you're likely to get an excellent prognosis with treatment.

He may LOOK healthy now, and he may actually be healthy maybe you're right he doesn't have cancer, but if he still has the sarcoma then it will have spread very aggressively by the time it produces any type of pain.

If the tests, bone scans, and biopsies today are all negative, then I salute you, the boy does not have cancer now.

I just find it funny that the lawyer for the boy wouldn't comment if the boy was treated for cancer in the last two years.
