For the past week I've been on the phone and faxing all my mothers medical records to the Head and Neck department of MD Anderson.
Today I got the call that my moms insurance company has agreed to pay for her to go out of state for treatment. I just cant wait to get there.

The Doctors here wanted to try Erbitux but we decided to pass on that and get a different opinion from a Comprehensive Cancer Center. We should have done this along time ago. My mother wanted to keep trusting in the doctors here but I explained to her its time to move on . There just hasn't been any good results with any treatment so far . So she has agreed to go.

I was told today that on Monday I will get a call for a appointment for the first week of January and to reserve 5 to 7 days for the first visit.

I feel excited about going and hopefully some kind of treatment will help my mother.

Happy Holidays Everyone
Heidi
