Well, Vanessa, I'm going to believe that the next 10 days will be hell for those mets and a blessing to you. May you continue to feel the love from all of us as you do your "zapping" of brain mets with the support of your family. You have some mighty smart, courageous warriors here who have "walked the walk" to help you through day by day! I'll sure be praying for you and believing in only the Best Results for you! Lots of love, mary anne
