Oh, my heart goes out to your friend! It's a heinous thing, cancer, and it's all around all of us. The testing I suggested at RGCC is very, very expensive (it's in euros but I think about $1700 for naturals, $2300 for naturals and chemos.) If she could afford it, she'd know what treatment(s) would help. I had to absolutely max out my credit to get it done but now I know and I'm not wasting my $, time and/or my life.
I hope they do not opt for "whole brain radiation" which would probably get it, but would have any one of several bad side effects. As for the vision.... how much must we give to this god-awful disease? I HATE IT!
My lovely friend in Panama, a british woman, is fighting colon cancer that is probably 25 yrs old! Too large to operate so chemo for now 'til it shrinks, then surgery, then more chemo/rads. My heart goes out to her and everyone in the battle.
No matter what treatments are offered a patient and what of those are chosen, it must be in the hands of the patient. No one can make the choice for you. I wish her wisdom and peace with whatever she's facing. (your friend and mine!)
