        Hi Pam, my husband was diagnosed in April this year. He has 5 brain mets and liver, small intestine and adrenal gland mets. One of the bowel mets caused an obstruction and he has had bowel surgery which he is struggling to recover from. He had whole brain radiation but the doctors say there is nothing else they can do as he is BRAF negative. I don't know why he hasn't been offered Yervoy. He is 57 and they just told him to go have some fun and put his affairs in order!  I don't know if I can offer anything that would help you with your journey but be assured you are not the only ones on this trip! Good luck and stay strong. Amy
