Thanks for all the thoughts and prayers I know they really help. Minnie, you are soooooo sweet! Ed, I suggested the HBO treatments and her ENT said.......that he does not recommend it because he said something about cancer feeding off of oxegen and if by chance (he seriously doubts it) that there is the smallest cancer cell left it may possibly fuel off the oxegen. Does that make sense and has anybody else ever heard that before? And yes he did say that infection in the bone after radiation is very serious and should not be taken lightly. One of the biggest problems shes up against is that she is highly allergic to penicillin, amoxicillin and any antiobiotic with cillin in the name so that limits what he can do to fight the infection. Is this anything that anybody else has been up against. It is now his biggest concern and wants to see her every week to see how she progresses with the antibiotics....
