Today was an amazing day! My Mom had her first appointment with Dr. Burzynski. I was so impressed with him and his office staff. Going into this, we really had no idea what to expect. The only thing we were absolutely certain of is that through prayer we had been guided to this clinic. After reviewing her pet scan and other information, Dr. Burzynski offered a tremendous amount of hope to us. Although Mother has a very rare form of cancer, the doctors assured us that they have seen this particular type of cancer before and that they have had much success in treating it. Dr. Burzynski has a very different approach to fighting cancer than most other oncologists. He does tests to find which genes are over expressed, and then he uses FDA approved medications that target those specific genes. He uses low doses of medications which do not produce the side affects of high dose chemotherapy. Testing for my Mom begins tomorrow! Thanks for all of your prayers... They are definitely being felt!!!
Good luck! To your Mother, family at home, and you... keep us updated!
