Re: Brain mets, WBRT, SRS, TDM1 and a VP shunt

Chuck, I'm glad you found us but sorry you had to. I think where you've posted is fine and should be seen by our more senior and knowledgable members who can relate to your wife's experience. Thank you for reaching out on her behalf. I know this must be a difficult experience for you too. Keep the faith
