The Deciders have decided.

After a very good call with Joe Herman last night, we have decided to go with the GTX at Hopkins.  After a few months, we should be able to switch treatment back to Philly.  Rachel has other sources that also support the use of GTX.  Also, it's possible that at a future time we could switch to the ICM protocol if that proves effective.  This morning our Penn oncologist Debbie Downer called and was even more of a downer than usual.  But she said she would support whatever we decided to do although I doubt we would use her much in the future although her nurse practitioner is great and very helpful.
The treatment would probably start the week of May 24; hopefully I'll have time to recoup from the air travel.  We expect to be in Paris from May 15 to May 23.
