Every second counts but as mentioned above the pre-treatment stages take a little time and planning. Just get the best team you can find and then ACT on it! Ask questions, take good notes, do your homework, trust your heart. Everyone here is a wonderful support system. Stay in touch and best wishes to you, Steve
