Shahyan;
I am so sorry to hear of your mothers situation. If you go to Christines story....go to home page, click on Community and then Members Stories.....you will find some comfort as she had brain mets and is now NED for a number of years.
I have seen on this site that there are a few chemo's which also cross the blood/brain barrier such as Xeloda and Temodor. She could also be treated with targeted radio-surgery such as cyberknife. So, as you can see there are many options. Many women on this site can comment in a more informed manner on this. There are also many women who have subborn mets which continue to bother them and they have been able to control them using herceptin and other chemo drugs. I am sure they will offer you more insite but look around this site and you will find many inspirational stories and also idea's and suggestions you can offer your mother and her oncologist. Hang in there and do not give up hope. Please keep us informed. All of my best,
Cathy
