This information leads me to ponder some thoughts. I'm wondering why this device wasn't recommended to us already? Just because the device isn't currently available locally doesn't mean we won't go anywhere necessary to get me the best treatment. I think many of you can read between the lines of these threads and recognize how much research my wife and I are doing to fight this disease. Given how much research my wife and I are doing and how many questions we're asking, it's scary to think how many opportunities might not come up during discussions with our doctors simply because we haven't asked the right question. Ugh.You have come to the realization that I also faced in my medical struggle. Even if you have to physically restrain that doctor from leaving the room before you can think of the question to ask, do it. You may not ask the right question, but ask it anyway because you never know where it will lead and it may actually lead to the right question eventually.
You can add a pin from a little town about 40 miles north of Dallas. I'm sorry you're having to go through this. Hang in there, don't give up, and don't rely on the doctors to tell you what there is to know. You and your wife are doing the right things. Keep doing them.

You and your wife are in my prayers and have been since you started your fight against cancer. I live in Orchard Park, New York so you can put a pin on my town. (It's south of Buffalo.)
I was really happy to see that you posted today because you were in my thoughts and I was wondering how you were doing. I was about to do a search for you when to my delight I found this thread on the front page.
Your quest for the best treatment should be inspiring for those who are willingly suffering through mediocre medical care. Never give up your search.
It took me four years and seven doctors to find a doctor to give me an accurate diagnosis for my particular illness.
I really appreciate your recommendation of Dr. Seigel's book. I am going to buy it as soon as possible for a very dear friend of mine who was recently diagnosed with cancer. Thank you and God bless you.

We know you are fine...just few things out of balance. Sounds like you're taking care of that part. Just put it in God's hands. God makes a way when there is no way. His ways are sure. His methods are ingenious. Have no fear. You can rely totally on God.

PS: I'm been accused more than once of being a tin foil hatter, so you can just stick my pin in Poland.

I'm praying for you! Stick a pin in Pittsfield, Illinois. Please check out this new development: Microscopic 'smart bomb' kills cancer cells.
A microscopic cancer "smart bomb" powered by a single radioactive atom is able to find and kill tumor cells in laboratory experiments. Researchers hope to test the technique on human patients next year.
