Best advice!!

Bring him here to Houston as soon as possible. If the tumor is growing that rapidly then the longer you wait the harder it will be to treat.

Do you know anyone in Houston? If you need help there are lots of groups here in the Houston Area that can and will help.

An organization here in Houston called CanCare can help with information. They are on the web at cancare.org. They know a lot about how to help.

If worse comes to worse, to get him into a place where he can be easily transfered and treated you can bring him to Ben Taub hospital in Houston. They are required by law to evaluate and treat because they serve people who are without insurance.

While he is there then you can walk just down the street and talk to the folks at MD. I know they have programs for no insurance.

Also call the Insurance Commission in Austin. They have pool insurance. It is not cheap but it is certainly cheaper than the treatments will be.

If you need more help, email me and I will do my best.

Hopefully this will at least get you started.

Good Luck!
