Yes, next week will be his 3rd treatment. He had one before his brain surgery and one every three weeks after. I know this is a clinical trial and I am hoping for the best. He is scheduled to have an MRI 3 weeks after his last Keytruda. His first craniotomy was in Jan 2022. Tumor grew back and he had to have another surgery April 2023. This disease consumes your whole life; not knowing what will happen the next day, or the next. It has been really rough but we are still hoping for the best. I am not ready to give up my husband to this disease so we will keep fighting. God is our strength.
