Unfortunately we have reached a point in fighting Nick's cancer that we have decided to reach out to other hospitals. Nick really needs aggressive chemo and radiation at this point. We discovered through our own findings by going through Nick's medical records that the histology for his cancer showed that it is resistant to chemotherapy and has a high rate of relapse. They never told us any of this. But Nicks oncologist wants to continue with the same chemo regime we've been doing all along.... ?!? That does not make sense to me.
And with this last CT showing they have only shrunk 10% after the 2nd round of chemo we need to do something different.
Please pray that St. Jude's will be able/willing to accept Nick's case!
I am so sorry to hear of Nick's struggles. I read his blog all the time, but haven't had any time to post a comment due to dealing with my own issues. But I want you to know that Nick and your family are in my prayers daily. Nick has been through so much and so have you. My heart breaks for your little guy. I know this is all in the Lord's hands, so I pray that each of you will have the strength, knowledge, peace and comfort you need to see you through all your challenges and those that may lie ahead. Hang in there and keep fighting. Give that little warrior or your's a hug for me.
