boyfriends biopsy

Hi all. My boyfriend is having surgery today. We found a lump in his thigh last Tues. He has been very sick (temp. of 102+ every night, vomiting, weakness, fatigue, weight loss 30+lbs) since October. No one has been able to diagnose anything. Before all this he was a very healthy 25 y/o former college football player. I am so scared and don't want it to show because he has been doing so well at staying positive..........:scrying:

Thank you everyone. The surgery went smoothly. He has a sarcoma close to his femur with surrounding cysts. Several samples were taken and we are waiting on the pathologists now which will take a while considering the holidays. Plan is to remove the mass soon after New Years. Will keep posting and praying. Hope everyone enjoys their holidays!
