3. Scheduling around Giants Opening Day

Given that I don't sit and do nothing very well, and since time is of dire importance, I decided to be proactive in scheduling my treatment. Assuming that UCD agrees with Dr. Goldberg and surgery is necessary, I want to be treated in Stockton. Since Goldberg's office is scheduling surgery a month out, I decided I needed to cover my bases and get on the surgery schedule ASAP. I don't want to wait three weeks for UCD and then another month for surgery scheduling.
Had to keep in mind that the WORLD CHAMPION SF GIANTS have their home opener on April 8th and I am NOT going to let cancer make me miss this!! Cancer can kiss my butt! I am going to opening day, and opening night for that matter! Gonna spend the whole weekend in San Francisco with good friends :-) YAY!

Based on needing a pre-op appt two weeks before surgery and given the UCD timelines, I booked my surgery in Stockton on April 1st! I am no fool though, just wanna get it done! Radiation can not start until I am healed, that will be a couple of weeks, and until the biopsy results come in, they won't even know what course of treatment I will need.

I would say it is pretty good timing.
