In the post I made just a minute ago, I said that my brother has made an appointment with an immunologist recommended to us by Patrick Quillin, author of "Beating Cancer With Nutrition", thank you again Emily. I hope that this helps to get my brother on the right track toward proper nutrition as he battles this terrible beast. My brother has never been a good eater. Seeing this doctor I hope is a step in the right direction. I hope that now he is persuing the best treatment route. I know that in the beginning his first doctor was not proactive enough. He did the surgery, put my brother on chemo, and then dropped the ball without follow up. Unfortunately I think my brother was in denial and felt that no news was good news. It wasn't until his employers changed medical carriers and he went in for a check up that it was discovered that the cancer had recurred. I think I may be taking a long way about asking this question, but do you think there are any other avenues he should persue? He is preparing for the next clinical trial at USC Hospital, and he's going to see the recommended immunologist. I've seen the commercials for Cancer Treatment Centers of America, I read that Patrick Quillin worked with them at one time. Has anyone been there? I know that watching commercials on TV isn't the best avenue for information but I just want to help my brother in anyway that I can. Thank you again, Chris
