MD Anderson will likely be too far a commute for you...I'm going to suggest you get an appointment with an internal medicine physician that accepts your insurance, tell them what the doctors told your dad, then ask for a referral to a hematologist (you probably won't have to ask). You are very young to have this problem and you should get medical attention as soonas you can. Where in Texas are you? I have a lot of family and can source them for medical reccomendations.
