The advice of the New York doctors was: "The University of Pennsylvania uses exactly the same therapy as we do and could treat David as well as we do. We do see a swelling in the nasal sinus. It would be closer to home for David to be treated in Philadelphia and less stress."

Back in Philadelphia, mother demanded a biopsy of the nasal sinus; the fact that David had allergies was never considered. The surgery was a disaster; the surgeon ruptured a major artery and nearly killed David. No biopsy of a life or death situation was encountered. All manor of chemotherapy and radiation was then started.

*Third Opinion*

David’s mother heard (through the patient’s gossip hotline) of the newest procedure in Pittsburgh and announced: "We must have this "newest and best" for David."

In Pittsburgh David was scalped; his skull was sawed from ear to ear and set aside. Seventeen biopsy samples were taken, digging as close to the brain as possible. His skull was replaced and his scalp sewed back over the bones; seventeen hours and $200,000 later David was wheeled out of the operating room.

David was going to five doctors and each one was giving him something different and not knowing or caring what the others were treating him with. All this was accomplished and treatment performed when there was no positive biopsy ever reported. All they could say was: "It could be cancer, but we can’t find it in the biopsy." Mother was delighted; she got to play doctor along with the best of them, while she was relieved of part of her wealth.

Dr. Morrison and I were devastated. We constantly asked God why such devastating and cruel experiences were necessary when David did not even have cancer! Maybe it was for you, the readers of this booklet — for your education and understanding. Carol and I had seen enough, long before David.
