It was my understanding that when repeating ATG you had to alternate horse and rabbit. Whichever you had the first time, you did the other the second round.
I personally had Horse ATG in 7/11, then Rabbit ATG 1/12 after having no improvement with the first treatment. For me, the rabbit treatment was much easier and had fewer side effects than with the horse.
Good luck to you on your son's future treatments.
