Re: Treatment Decision Time
Courtney,
Gosh, such a tough decision! Firstly, please know how rotten I feel about this new area of focus! Hated damn disease!!! I guess my question is simply whether the t-cell vaccine works? Is it aggressive enough to contain the cancer and put it back in the bottle, or is it an unknown gamble? If it is a pretty sure shot, then I guess I'd be inclined to roll the dice. If not, then I'd go with the tried and true hoping to get it under wraps again. Then if permitted, I'd take those frozen t-cells and pray they work their proposed magic!
Don't you wish you had that crystal ball at times like these to really KNOW what to do? I will pray for healing and clarity for you.
