Wink Another "speed bump"

Dear Sue,
There are many of us here who have been though a bout or three with brain mets.
I had two to deal with last January and so far Gamma Knife seems to have worked.
Have you had a tumor marker that goes up and down with the mets?? My CEA was an excellent indicator and it is lower than ever now so we are not worrying.

Is you met in a difficult place to treat?? The docs really gave my two brain mets a good blast. The worst was having to take the Decadron, but you know about that one.
Chin up, cookie, and look this thing in the eye. If your docs will radiate it again and that is what you want, then do that.
This is also no one's fault and you must not feel bad that your family has to suffer along with you. That is part of being a "family." It is just that as women we are usally on the giving end.
