To quickly access health information from your website's browser, download Life changes quickly I’m a 66 year old retired man who has always prided himself on physical fitness. On April 16 I did my normal 2-1/2/hour workout at the local fitness center. The next morning as I went to work in my garden, I fell, snapping the left femur just above the knee. After emergency surgery to insert a steel rod, my Surgeon biopsied the bone and discovered clear cell carcinoma cells which led to ct scans and the discovery of a 4cm. tumor on the left kidney. I am currently on my second series of Sutent and have had radiation treatment on the bone lesion. I will get reports on the bone lesion and the effect of the Sutent sometime late in August. So life has changed dramaticaly. I am hoping for the best. July 2007
