We got good news back today. The clinical trial that we are a part of randomly determines the treatment regimen Max will receive. We got the results back today and we were assigned the most agressive treatment. We were really hoping to get this treatment, but could only get it as a part of this study. This is a great answer to prayer and confirmation that we hopefully made the right decision. Chemo has been rescheduled to begin Tuesday and Wednesday, with the trial Max will get another infusion of a biological blood product called IVIG. This means two 9 hour days of chemo.
The second piece of good news was the results of the MIBG scan. This was the test that shows "cancerous hot spots". We are still waiting for the written report but the intial findings came back clean. Even with the cancer being found in the lymph nodes this is surprising and an answer to prayer.
