07/22/99 Update: CT scan results and possible treatment at LSU Med Center


The CT scan revealed that Brandon's tumor has grown about 25%. He is doing alternative medicines in Clear Lake. He has been undergoing tests this week at Texas Childrens Hospital to see if he has the right cell identifiers for an experimental treatment at LSU Medical Center in New Orleans. It appears that he may have just enough of the madastaton receptors required for this treatment!

Brandon has a patient assessment at the LSU Medical Center scheduled for next week. Let's pray hard that Brandon can get this drug. Remember no child has received it before. It is an adult phase 1 study drug--that means it is still experimental (therefore, no insurance coverage.)
