    Just a quick update. My hubby started whole brain radiation therapy yesterday and the doctors called today to inform that hes being put on taf plus mek in addition to the wbrt. We have to wait for insurance pre-approval to go through, but Novartis is going to give us enough to get by for a month in samples. Feeling pretty grateful.
