Andrew was diagnosed with medulloblastoma, at age 8.5. His tumor was fully removed on 6/15/06. Medullo tumors account for 20 % of pediatric brain tumors. He did 6 weeks of radiation, 2340 Cgy full brain and spine with a "boost" to the tumor bed to 5580. Then he did 5 of a possible 8 cycles of chemo-cisplatin and lomustine. We stopped at that point (April '06) due to dose reductions.
