Re: Intrathecal (IT) Herceptin (Trastuzumab) for brain mets (Leptomeningeal Metastase

Feb 12 results as good as October and December. That means at least four months (and probably longer) with no brain or systemic disease seen. Almost ready for the happy dance, but Nina is pretty scared. She has five tough years of fighting brain mets (although the last 2 1/2 have been very positive). No spinal disease seen since May of 2012, almost four years. How do I get her to think in terms of ten years out and not two months until the next MRI scans? She is healthy and wants to go give massages to keep her spirits up and help bring extra cash into the house. We can definitely use it.
