Thanks for the well wishes and links! Susan was diagnosed in July of 2012 so the good news for us is that she is still walking and talking.

Leptomeningeal problems are not easy to handle. The Depocyt has run its course and will be stopped. Then the high dose Herceptin IT continued. She has a couple enlarged hot lymph nodes in her neck that need radiated. She has had some unsteadiness, fell a couple times but is getting physical therapy to help with that.

But anyway - thanks for responding.
