IT Hercepton and update on Saygoon

[Saygoon]

Texas Oncology in Austin is currently doing a trial for IT Hercepton. Everyone there has been extremely nice. Very caring staff. I had surgery for my Omaya Port Monday and will start treatment on Tues. I will keep everyone posted, but for those in need of this treatment option I found this facility to outshine MD Anderson, however everyone may have a different opinion. If anyone wants further info on this trial you can call 512-421-4100 and ask for Marlena Griffin. Wonderful lady who has walked me through all this. In the meantime says prayers for me as I start on this new venture.
