I'm sorry about her diagnosis
I'm sorry about her diagnosis, especially at such a young age. However, this isn't really something that we can do. First, a biopsy report doesn't speak to whether there was an unnecessary delay in the workup. In addition, our role is to provide general information and not provide commentary or interpret the findings of the management of individual patients. This is really the kind of question that can best be done, and probably only be done, by someone providing a detailed second opinion after reviewing all of the evidence.
Good luck.
