You and your Mom are in my prayers at this time, she is very lucky to have a daughter like you to support and love her through this terrible illness....may you both feel the love and warmth that surrounds you as only a mother and daughter can share....I will be praying for a miracle for your Mom, but as we know, this is in the hands of a higher power.
Hugs to you and your Mom

Thanks for letting us know Julissa. I'm very sorry and pray for a miracle. Seen the news the last few days about having herceptin injected in the spinal fluid to get past the brain barrier. Maybe email Lani or Becky to see if they have any treatment ideas. Keep in touch, we care. BB

Peace and blessings
