i've been the treating radiation therapist on patients with this type of cancer 1988-1998. it can be very successful. the immediate first weeks can be very tough, physically, your immune system is, in practical terms, is non existent, and the risk of an infection is very high. i'd be interested in seeing the follow up story on this.
and, for the expense of a well loved pet with a chronic medical condition.... given the money i've spent on alex, i'm not in a place to be critical. i made choices in spending the money for his treatments, and i made the financial sacrifices necessary. if i had skin kids, i couldn't have done what i did. may none of the PT family ever have to make those choices, amen
