Re: brain mets
Pam,
I am so sorry to hear your latest. Really just takes the wind out of my sails. Dang. I just wish you could get a bit of breathing room here. I am betting you feel like you are lost at sea with one wave after another crashing over you.
There is so much on the brain mets front these days that I am not about to give up on you, so please you stay mentally strong too! I think you said you will begin Haleven once the radiation is complete. That drug has certainly worked wonders for our dear Sheila, and it is my belief it will do something extraordinary for you too! I am sorry you are struggling so right now. I wish I could reach across the web and give you a big hug. Prayers coming.
