10. I am very sorry. It does seem that KU offers Car T cell therapy for lymphoma.

If you google University of Kansas cancer lymphoma you will be directed to the page.

If they can shrink the tumor, surgery may be possible.

Last week my wife and I watched the Ken Burns documentary Emperor of All Maladies. You may wish to procure it. It's a little "sciency" but informative. It's based on a book with the same title.

I, like everyone here wish you all the best.
