      Will be going to MD Anderson for an appointment on 9/25. Was told to plan on staying several days and leave travel plans flexible. Hope they go ahead and do the surgery. I have not been on a vacation in years because I did'nt feel like I could afford to fly. Hope one trip does it.

                      Look on the MD Anderson website for how to contact one of their social workers. They can help you with reduced rates on hotels, free “angel” rides to/from the airport and I think there are several services including Southwest Airlines that can provide free airline tickets to cancer patient in need. I think Houston Ground Angels is a group that provides rides, so it would save you $40-plus cab fare from Hobby for example. Good luck!
