      Amy, did you get biochemo already?

      I would make an appt with a neurosurgeon and see what their opinion is regarding WBR and Temodar.   Ask about compassionate use of ipilimumab, and possibly avastatin(off label).  I would also ask if the meninges can be removed surgically, now that there has been response to IL2.

      I will keep you in my prayers.

      Best
