I Can't believe the phone call I got from MD Anderson Today. How upsetting.
The Surgeon that my mother seen at MDA called me today and said my mother would be better off staying at home at a local hospital for treatment.
I called the medical oncologist at MDA who told us about a clinical trial my mother could try and I cannot even get a call back.
My mother has not had treatment in 5 weeks due to the transition to MD Anderson and now this Bomb Shell. We didn't need this rite now. Something just isn't rite with this picture.
My mothers previous doctors were supposed to be MD Anderson certified at a local hospital . I cant help but to wonder if this had something to do with this phone call.
Im so upset Heidi
