A friend of mine had WBR twice, she had lung cancer with mets to the brain. Sadly the mets to the brain came back and she was told if she did WBR a third time, she could end up a vegetable. She choose not to do it, she passed away last year. She survived 22 months with lung cancer/brain mets..Survival is different in everyone and hard to predict...sherryg683
