Bill's Options

Bill has three options for removing his melanoma; surgery, radiation therapy, and chemotherapy. I think that Bill should choose to get his melanoma surgically removed. The tumor is localized and it is still a relatively small size. Radiation therapy may be too strong for such a small tumor and chemotherapy is usually used for cancer that is too far gone.

I agree. Any other option could maybe harm him even more, or put him through treatments that are unnecessary. My post relates to yours in many ways.
