Sorry to hear this but it’s enlightening to hear your wife is not going home to “just” live out the rest of her days!! Just proof of don’t always go with the first docs ideas, always get a second opinion! Always! Glad to hear there is hope!
Different subject but my daughter has a rare syndrome and we know a couple other kids that have the same and are treated at Cleveland Clinic. We hear nothing but the best from there!! One of the docs there had also seen my daughter and we feel the same towards him! Sounds like Lisa, good name by the way (my wife’s name too) is in good hands!!
Best to you both as you, as you say, kick this demons ass!!!
Wishing the best surgery, quick recovery and c free!!!!!
