Hi back to you!! Hope you had a wonderful Thanksgiving...God only knows
we all have alot to be thankful for! It is a delight to have Ron back in
full form. He has such spirit!
I checked out the NCI site which I visit many times during the day for
work purposes. There was nothing about Hypofractional Radiation (has an
interesting ring to it!) but I did manage to find alot about the clinical
use of radiation in combination with chemo. It is becoming more the
practice for difused cancer that is not well differentiated. If you need
I will pass on the NCI website address.
In the meantime, God Bless and keep up the spirits and good work!
John
