I just saw your message and hope by this time you have found the answer you need. Can you find a local oncologist who does research and who would be willing to set up a clinical trial that would include your mother? He could contact Genenteck and if they approve the trial they will provide the drug at no cost. You and your mother are in my thoughts and prayers.
