Eshwar, we are in the same boat as you and we both continue to steer as caregivers. There is a clinical trial at University of Pennsylvania combining two traditonally administered breast cancer chemo drugs taken orally, my Dad just started it with the goal of stopping further mets and shinking the existing mets. He is not going to the center daily like before, just once a month and I can report he has energy, quality of life, and no side effects yet. scans a end of january to check progress. pm me if you want more info.
