Ursula,
Thanks so much for posting.

Very nice, Ursula.

I always wonder, though, why they don't mention that FinHer seems also to be much easier on the heart. And it avoids the problem of patients having their hearts so damaged by anthracyclines that they can't even get herceptin.

I like your bear, too!

Best wishes,

Christine
