    Hello,

    The National Cancer Institute has designated some 40 cancer centers as providing the best cancer treatments. Fourteen of the NCI's designated centers are classified as "Comprehensive" centers -- the top treatment centers in the US. Fortunately, Rutgers Cancer Institute of New Jersey is a National Cancer Institute-designated Comprehensive Cancer Center. If you live too far from Rutgers, the folks there can provide a wide array of resources. I think the American Cancer Society also has a Hope Lodge where a patient and a caregiver can stay for free during certain phases of treatment such as radiation. Rutgers also has a pretty well established network so that some treatment can be done locally and some a Rutgers.

    Hope this helps,

    bride
