I’m a retired RN, so I’m not up on a lot of never treatment modes, but cancer treatment has developed some amazing advances in just the few years I’ve been retired, lung cancer among them. Cyber knife, which they were using before I was retired, is very effective, and gene therapy is out there, too. One thing I do know -— all cancer treatment places are not the same. For instance, there are only a very few PET scans available around the country, and they can detect much smaller cancers, in millimeters, rather than centimeters. Rush has more than enough money to go to the best lung cancer centers in the country. But the Great Physician is who He needs the most, and it sounds like he’s already under His care. Prayers for healing for Rush.
Agree!! Cancer treatments have advanced incredibly. I had about 2 weeks when I was whisked in for immediate treatment for AML. I’m 4 years post SCT.
Now, post treatment issues are still a very real thing. But, as you said - not all treatment centers are the same. University hospitals are definitely the way to go. Night and day. Over your local cancer clinic. Or if someone can get to Mayo in a Houston - that’s the best.
