  19. I hope that they are able to get things under control soon...Hope you make the best of the christmas that you can possibly do ...worries me that they keep saying same thing about if the chemo does this much it must be working though... I hope and pray that they are right... the shots it sonds liek are a replacement for the transfusions... nice thing is they do not take as long to administer...
  20. put the questions to the ONC ? Ask them what the p[lans are for the futture??? You have right to know what they are wanting to do and can question everything....
  21. welcome ! Love the lofty aspirations adn goals ahead of you! don't let anyone tell ya too slow down!!! Nice to meet you! sorry it has to be this way though!!
  22. first thought also is if your having money issues on the ritalin you can check with manufacturer and see if you can get financial help paying for it if insurance won't cover as much as they need to.. lots of companies offer that program for their products... a second thought is. what is possibility of feeding tube for now???? Glad she is getting some food and liquid into her system at the very least.. and tube can be removed at later time. is not permanent ... these are couple of thoughts for you!!!!
