A brief update:
Kev met with his oncologist on Friday and they decided to start a 4th cycle of Abraxane & Nexavar that day. The CT scans indicated, in general, a slight shrinkage in most tumors. (a more detailed report will follow). The new brain lesion was also discussed and it was agreed that Kev should meet with the neurosurgeon to discuss options. We have an appt with the neurosurgeon Tues.
