Hi Kim,
I live in the San Francisco bay area (born & raised all my life), so I happen to know a few doctors around here. By hearsay, Dr David Larson is one heck of a doctor for gamma knife treatment (not sure if Univ of Calif SF does perform cyperknife?). Hope he is the one that you are consulting with about your brain met.
If you want to know more about local doctors around here, feel free to email me at:

Sorry about a handful of downtimes that you have been having, but listen, there WILL be a better tomorrow!!!! I can get mad too, but we do get our good days also! I recall my old friend's mother often reciting: "You will have to experience the sorrows in order to experience the joys; otherwise, the joys won't be as joyful & appreciated." Right?
Hang in there Kim; life can be one big poop, but keep in mind that you are NEVER alone -- we are cheering on your side!
And please keep us posted, OK?
Hugs ~ JO.
