Re: Brain Mass
Diane,
We hear the despair in your post. Another opinion, right away! There are so many options out there. Don't let the first doctor just right it off as "inoperable". That may be so, but drug combinations are worth the chance to shrink the tumor. We are cheering for you in the background and will support you with info as well as prayers and good wishes. Stay strong!
Hugs, Elizabeth
