I know... and I am so frustrated right now.
2 months seems like a long time to me.
But, dad is sooo hopeful
Problem is, he's been having these little mini seizures since the regrowth... and god, I just hate all of this.
Dad wants to do what the docs say...
I want to respect his wishes...
Frig, Dad just had another little seizure. I hate this.
What about Avastin? I agree they should be moving on to plan B.
You might try going to Duke University web site they have a brain tumor center. Dr. Friedman is very aggresive with treatment. On the Brain Tumor Site you can fill out a form and email to him and he gets back to you with in a few days with his opinion. You can also send your fathers medical records to him and he will review them as a second opinion. I don't know if this is possible since your in Canada bt it's worth a try.
Don't give up. Your being a great advocate for your father.
