Thank you all so very much for all your help. You are all correct it is 23mm. Wendy wants to thank you all for everything you have provided her with. She is now looking into everything and is now taking control of her situation and going forward to see what her options are.

When she was first dx her concern was for her daughter and she trusted her oncologists. She believed that everything was going to be alright and for 6 months it was. When she went in for her last MRI and they didn't call her she thought everything was the same. Then she went in for her Herceptin treatment and the onc. told her that she had growth and a new met in her brain. She was in total shock and wasn't prepared for it. By Saturday she had all kinds of questions. She has never been one to look at her scans or know her options, but now she is looking into all of this. I mean in one hour after posting I had Steph post and found Patty Z.'s treatment and by Monday found other posts available. So just as a reminder to others reading this, when an onc. tells you there is nothing else we can do for you, don't believe them. Patty didn't and I sure as heck don't. To look at Wendy you would never know she was sick. Her counts are good. Her liver mets are stable. She feels great. She has it in her to fight. I think it is just the inadequatecy of the onc. because she doesn't know what else to do. Look around and find that onc, who will fight with you and for you. I want to Thank all of you who posted and I want to tell you what a huge difference you made in one woman's life. You gave her something her doctor couldn't and should have. You all are commendable. She will be looking into gamma and chemo options and anything else she can get her hands on. I just can't thank you enough. Love to you all.
ps. If any of you think of anything else, please keep on posting.....
