Debbie,

I agree with Brian 100%. Get your husband to Johns Hopkins ASAP. I regret not taking Heather there in the beginning, instead of waiting until she had the recurrence. I wouldn't want you to have the same regrets. I know I am probably causing you to panic and I'm sorry, but time really is of the essence in this case. The best of luck to both of you.

Rainbows & hugs, wink
Rosie
