I am thrilled to report that his tumor is still stable. He will continue with the treatment  - projected to be a TOTAL of 9 cycles. That seems like a long time and it is - all the way out to November. But as long as it works and he is tolerating it - thats the plan.The fear of things turning sour is always on my mind, but for now I am just taking each good day that he has - as a blessing.:):)He has decided to move on with life as best he can and he is doing great - all things considered.Now if SPRING would ever arrive in Wisconsin, we would all be HAPPY.:)Eileen  Wissis Sat, 26 Apr 2008 00:00:00 GMT  On 4/26/2008 Wissis wrote:My brother just completed his 4th cycle of Avastin/CPT.
