(sigh) I thought I made explicit that he would, of course, be seeing the oncologist. However, since the medical options aren't particularly attractive, he would prefer that it just go away. He's very religious. However, he's also a scientist. He's not a wackadoo nut. But he doesn't see anything wrong with praying for a miraculous recovery between now and the date of surgery. As far as I know, one can hope for a miracle without abandoning conventional treatments.
