I am the mother of 27 year old Andy. He was diagnosed in January 2009 with a left temporal lobe tumor that turned out to be a combination glioblastoma metaforme IV and PNET (primitive neuro-ectodermal tumor). He had 30% resection, standard 6 weeks of radiation and temodar, then 6 rounds of 5/23 temodar with great results... until suddenly there were four new little tumors growing all through the left side. He's now on Avastin and Carboplatin. We are trying to keep this thing quiet in his head and enjoy every minute of our lives.
