David,

She has been treated with 6 weeks of induction chemo and a big surgery on May 14th. Things have moved along as quickly as they possibly could have progressed. Camille has been treated at MD Anderson Cancer Center in Houston, TX. There has been no consensus opinion from our team at MDA. Everyone comes down "along party lines" as one doc described it. In what way do you mean time has been wasted? It has just been four weeks since her surgery? as far as we've been told this is well within the time frame for setting up radiation. more info??
