Hi,

Tomorrow my dad will be going to Johns Hopkins here at home for a 2nd opinion. I'm not able to go and a little nervous. My parents have also decided they want to visit Cancer Treatment Centers of America. Has anyone heard or used any of these hospitals?

    Hi Erika,
    Good luck to your Dad, will be praying for him. I have heard good and bad about the Cancer Centers. Google it and you will see what other people say. Hopkins is in the top 3 for esophageal cancer. Hope he gets a good 2nd opinion. take care,

    Hi William, I just wanted to
    Hi William, I just wanted to tell you how encouraged I was by this post. I don't always have the time to read all of these, but something made me read this today and it was what I needed to hear. My husband is stage IV with mets to the liver. It has been a long tough road very lonely road so far. Thank you for posting. It meant a lot to me!
