Welcome to our wonderful forum, know that we are here for you and will help
in any way we can by giving you links and medical articles. Please know
that we are not in the medical profession; but do have combined year's of
expierence with cancer. I would further suggest that you go to our album;
there are many resources in there from how to talk to your doctor, questions
to ask about your treatment, cancer centers, cancer resources and much
more.
I am including for you some excellent URL'S to help you in your quest.
When you are at the NCI site check into trials. First read about trials so
you will understand the 4 phases completely.
I am also including alternative sites for you to explore
If we may be of further help please just ask. Warmly, your friend, lillian
