Definition from Cancer.gov:

definitive treatment listen (deh-FIH-nih-tiv TREET-ment)
The treatment plan for a disease or disorder that has been chosen as the best one for a patient after all other choices have been considered.

__________________________________________________________

A wonderfully vague word that is used, Stalin-wise, to make a bad prognosis not look as bad as it really is. Most of the articles about Teddy Kennedy and John McCain used similar language that had to be carefully parsed to learn the grim truth. Given the writing about Kennedy and McCain, it looks like she’d better making her funeral arrangements.
