Re: Mets to Brain

Just made my decision that I will do WBRT in december. Had my cranio-surgery 11/17/11. Just feel like I need to do everything medically possible to prevent any future recurrence or I will regret my decisions. I'm scared and feeling a little sorry for myself right now, but I know that it was the right decision for me.
