I have to agree with Gerri, this should be your husband's decision. In our case, my husband decided in 2001 that he would forego the two immunotherapies that was offered for renal cell cancer and that has proven to be the best decision for him. He has lived with a very good quality of life until just recently. Many of the folks who took the immunotherapy had little quality of life, became weak and some died from other illnesses due to the weakening of their immune system. My husband took immune boosters and rarely even got a cold. But then on 9/11/07, we learned he had two inoperable brain tumors which were both treated with CyberKnife (Radiosurgery) in late Sept and early October. Now he is alive but suffering from the radiation side effects since these tumors are both in the brain stem area. But there is also a better chemo drug now available that he is considering. So again, the choice was his and I supported it. Prayer and reading aloud the WORD relating to healing has been the most encouraging to me. Praying for God to lead us in his PEACE vs. being driven by fear has been critically important to us.
