@tattrigoo, does your dad have metastases to the brain? You are wise to weigh the benefits versus the possible side effects. What side effects and benefits did they explain to you? Will it be whole brain radiation?

@samasama, how did the treatment with Ipilimumab go on Friday?

No, no metastasis. We were told it was for preventative measures- prophylactic cranial irradiation. I have no idea what that entails, other than what I learn from the Internet. We are meeting with the radiation oncologist in a few weeks to learn more about it.
