Even though your decision was tough, think of Tod Beamer and the others on flight 93 somewhere in the skies over Pennsylvania. They had little information and had to make literally a split-second decision. I am glad you have found enough information to make the best possible decision you had to make for yourself.
I am hoping and praying God will lead you to exactly what you need to fight this horrible cancer.
