I also recommend a second opinion as Christine B suggests. JHU is outstanding.

If you’d like another set of eyes, UCSF does a treatment protocol review (note this is not conveyed by insurance.)

I am so sorry that your brother is undergoing such an ordeal. Sending you both best wishes for healing and strength.
