Proton Therapy - Oligodendroglioma - From Canada

Hello All,
I am wondering if anyone has Oligodendroglioma and have successfully used Proton Therapy. My father has this type of brain tumor, and we are going to see if we can go to the USA for Proton Therapy at the Massachusetts General Hospital. Our meeting with the Oncologist is this Thursday, August 11th. I am going to suggest/ask if this is the path we can take. At this point I feel this is the answer.
Has anyone used Proton Therapy for Oligodendroglioma before? Or has anyone from Canada went through the process of going to the USA for treatments? I would love to talk to you!
