Les,
Thanks for the quick responce. Have you heard of a drug called Herbatux? That is another that they are considering. My mother is cash paying so they are going thru the drug company's for some assistance. Did you or do you have a feeding tube? My mom is refusing to have one. She feels she can afford to lose 30 or so pounds. I feel differntly. She has had about 3 radiation so far and is already feeling some side effects. From what i've read this is going to be a very rough road ahead for her. She was just diagnosed with this just before Christmas 2005. I'm hoping that she gets fighting mad. Right now she barely going through the motions.
I wish the best in your recovery and i'm sure i'll have plenty more questions.
Thanks again,
Kim
