Tumor Monorail

Is there any mention on this site about this Tumor Monorail?  What are your thoughts Stephen?

My husband had a focal seizure at the airport and this week had one while waiting for his f/u MRI at home.  He's never had seizures b4 this.    After 5 yrs tumor free from original GBM diagnosis,  recurrence/surgery one year ago, they now think he could have two tumors!   Time to head south to UCSF for Dr. Berger to weigh in since one tumor site looks close to the ventricle.  :-((  

Also, he's had skin cancer on his head w/2 Moh's surgeries with grafts this last summer and the rashes from that, in itself, could inhibit him having surgery, fearing if any infection could get in his brain if they open him up.     Talk about getting slammed!!!  We are waiting to hear from UCSF for their opinion.  I don't have a good feeling this round.
