See below: I hope that you receive good news for your mom's biopsy results. I know that it is so hard to wait for news like that, but give the pathologist time to work everything up completely. The right diagnosis at the beginning is so important for treatment and outcome. Good luck. Your mom and her family are in my thoughts and prayers at this difficult time
