By way of an update, my daughter, Lisha, is now in hospice care AGAPI in Lexington, SC. She is only semi responsive and bedridden. I am intending starting tomorrow to seek further advice on what treatments might be still available. More surgery, more chemo, more radiation or just let the disease take its course. Any thoughts would be most welcome. Would Cancer Centers of America (Atlanta) be a viable option?
Best Regards, George

Call Cancer Treatment Center of America, memorial Sloan Kettering in NYC, Moffit in Tampa Fla. It can't hurt George. God Bless you and your daughter.

While there is life there is hope.
Do what your heart tells you to do. At this point there is no 'wrong' decision. .

My understanding is that if a patient is in hospice care, that the decision has been made to proceed with palliative care only. My thoughts are with you

bad cancer
George: I had to go through the same thing with my mother, when they get to stage four their is little or no reversing it, I set it up so she was medicated and in no pain, she slipped away easily which is a blessing for all, it is a hard decision but sometimes is best to let them go easily.

Thank You Jim, Dean John & Mills: I am currently seeking further advice. I am not satisfied with the hospice that she is in; Cancer Center of America in Atlanta is my best option I believe. I'm talking with them tomorrow.
Best Regards, George

George, I looked at cancer centers of America but they would only take you if you were in a certain radius of there facility, What ever you do do not give up hope! I was told I had a year and a half at most left, The good lord is the reason I am here today, along with the doctors at Duke, and lot of prayers. I am 4- 1/2 years later Cancer free. Stay the course, You my friend are in my prayers for your daughter, Gary
