I would opt to stop treatment now, get my affairs in order, and begin hospice care. The tumor has infiltrated the frontal lobes and is so big that it is pushing against the right hemisphere; the prognosis is very grim at this point!

I know someone who has had success with and inoperable brain tumor while working with Sloan Kettering and taking a ganoderma lucidum supplement.
You can learn more by going to www.pubmed.gov and type in cancer and ganoderma lucidum, cancer and mangosteen, cancer and goji, cancer and spirulina...

I don't think chemotherapy can be done on the brain.Depending on how much radiation you have had you may be able to have more. Also they could do another craniotomy.
