				Re: Phooey--Brain Mets
			 
 Amy,
 I haven't been on the site much lately and was so bummed to see that you have brain mets.  You've been through so much already it just seems so unfair that you've now got to contend with this.  I don't know what to say.  I hope your treatments are effective with manageable side effects.  I'll be sending healing thoughts your way.
 
 Take care,
 Brenda
