A second opinion at a CCC is in order. Try and convince your brother that it's in his best interest to have it. Does he read the postings on this board? If not try and get him to do so. The more knowledge he has the better treatment decisions he can make. This is a most unforgiving diaease. Hoping all goes well for both him and your family.
I think he would qualify for treatmrnt at Sloan due to completing treatment the first go around. It doesn't take long to attain his records and forward them to wherever you go.
