New Tests for Priscilla

A wee kink in the road...


Now that Dr Gladdy knows Priscilla's Dad, Grandma and brother have Gorlin Syndrome she is going to test Priss for it too. Gorlin's ppl are very susceptable to skin cancer and sarcomas.....radiation will cause skin cancer for them so perhaps Priscilla will have to have chemotherapy instead if she has Gorlins. Dr G thought it explained why the sarcoma has appeared in such a young woman, it's usually a mid-40s thing.
The good thing about having chemo is that it will be done in Ottawa so she won't be away from her family all week in a strange city.

Thank you all for your support, it really helps
