I hope everything goes well for Cassidy. I'll be thinking about you guys. Makes me wonder if the doc has kids. I’d freak a little at the “c” word. A 9 year old? Ooph.

In front of a kid who was way too young to understand? Possibly. But Cassidy sounds smart enough to know the word "cancer." Not a great call by the doc.

I pray it will be nothing worrisome. I would have been unhappy with the doctor as well. I believe in being as truthful with kids as I think they can handle but why even say the word cancer before the procedure? Especially if it probably isn't and your child didn't ask. There would be time after for you and the doctor to decide what to say and when to say it. (If anything had to be said at all). As if you don’t have enough? I pray it will be nothing worrisome.
