    I know some little about this!!
    Hello !! Yes Chemo is Not too good on brain, you are finding much info from Docs and others (too much I bet!!) but check Docs to give chemo for the body and sterotacic-gamma knife for the rest....with his extensive cancer it is hard decision what to do first.....they may treat the brain first...but all care by Docs is not a moment too soon it sounds. I have not tried Tarceva and the others many the others have mentioned, but I do not test positive fro EGFR gene I found out. I ask for the Suumary print out from Recored Dept. after a few days from seeing a Doc--this helps

    Please keep us updated

    Best wishes..>Dave
