Something else you could do while you are waiting for more info is to go to the top of this page where it says "My Stuff" and scroll all the way down to the bottom and fill in any info on your Dad's experiences that you like so that others can more easily help you with specific information (see my signature line, below). Another thing you might include is your geographic location (about 1/2 way down the same "My Stuff" page) like maybe the State where your Dad is being treated. This is optional, tho' so don't feel like you have to identify this. Sometimes, other posters from the same area can recommend hospitals or doctors they've had good experiences with or in case you want a 2nd opinion on any treatment.
