Charlie:
For what it's worth, my wife had the same thing four years ago and she's fine now. She didn't have the complications your wife had, but had a grapefruit-sized tumor on her ovary that was mis-diagnosed. She went to her doctor more than once, complained about being bloated and uncomfortable and they couldn't diagnose it, thought it was some kind of stomach ailment. She heard about Mayan abdominal massage and decided to try it. The massage therapist put her hands on my wife's stomach and within 60 seconds told her she had a mass that didn't belong there and she needed to go to the doctor. Then she was diagnosed and had surgery not long after. Her tumor was benign, and I think many of the ovarian tumors that progress like hers and your wife's to grapefruit size are likewise benign.
Your post brought back memories of some tense hours waiting for the surgeon to come out and give me the news, prayers sent and hoping for the best for you and your family.
