John,

That's great news.... stuff like this gives everyone on the site hope. About the drugs, being stable etc. I think that this is where you could start loooking into vaccine trials as they have shown much promise in cases like Kathy's. Also, most drugs work for a while and then start loosing effectiveness due to resistance however...the good news is that many can be reused after 6 months with equal to original effectiveness. Drugs such as navelbine and xeloda are far friendlier than carbo and taxol and often just as effective in knocking-out mets. You could alos think about tykerb.
Great news and good luck,
Al
