I called Dad today and he was fasting and meditating in preparation for mom's biopsy procedure today. It will take place probably around mid-morning PST.
They are planning to take a biopsy so that they can have the exact cancer that is in mom's body to test which chemo combinations will work before they integrate the chemo into the complete treatment plan for when she gets back.
It will go back to Dr. McKee in America, his lab will do the testing and then Dr. McKee, Dr. Stone and Dr. Perez will make a decision together and collaborate with the doctor that mom ultimately ends up with in Atlanta (hopefully she will continue to be able to be treated at Emory after her initial second opinion that has been approved there).
