What Should Bill Do?
1. Bill needs to choose the most effective method in the removal of his malignant tumor. Three of his options are surgery, chemotherapy, and radiation.
2. I believe the most logical choice for Bill would be to choose the surgery. His cancer is in the early stages and has not progressed into any of his lymph nodes or other parts of his body. Surgery would be the easiest, and most efficient way to remove the cancer. I might also reccomend Bill to look into radiation after his surgery to reduce the chances of the cancer coming back.

I disagree, I believe chemotherapy is the more affective treatment because it kills the cancer cells that divide rapidly in his body.
I also disagree with this choice of treatment because the type of cancer that Bill has is a lot more harder to remove with just surgery. The better option would be chemotherapy because the drugs could at least try to fight the rapidly growing cells.
i agree, since the tumor is still contain and has not spread to the surrounding lymph nodes surgery will be the safest and most effective way to make sure the cancerous cells are removed from the body. Radiation after surgery will also help to kill any of the cancerous cells that might have been missed in surgery and also as a way to make sure that the caner does not come back.
I agree with your choice of removal since the cancer has not spread and surgery enjures that the removal of the cancer is sucessful.
