2 year anniversary today
 

Yes that's right, it was 2 years ago today that I had my first mammo/ultrasound that was "highly suspicious of malignancy" and Oct 4th when I heard the words "you have cancer". I was told even before my biopsy, it was that obvious. I do feel a little better, making it to the 2-year mark with NO mets or anything, even being staged at 3a so it IS do-able. Now next year when I stop the Herceptin I will be a bsaket case I know. But I know with my type of very aggressive cancer, the first 2 years are the most vulnerable. Herceptin ROCKS!!!

Thank you all for all your help, knowledge and support - without this site I wouldn't know half of what I know about what I'm dealing with. Thank you so much Joe and Christine for everything you do, you truly are making a difference in ALL our lives!
Jen - TWO YEAR (and counting) SURVIVOR - YEAH!!!!!

Congratulations!

And you just reminded ME...today is my 2 year anniversary of my very first chemo. Funny the things we celebrate! But each such milestone is another reminder how precious each day is and how far we have come.

Next year when you finish herceptin you may be a basket case, but you will also have that much more time behind you and even more before you!

Take care
Chris

Congratulations Jennifer! Many years to come yet

Jen,

Just wanted to say Congrats to you. You were one of the first to reach out to me in my age group, and your support and sharing helped me more than you will ever know. I was so grateful to know I was not the only person with small kids going through this.

I am also happy to hear that you are feeling so well emotionally 2 years out. I have had lots of ups and downs and feel like I am never going to get an emotional break from the death senetence I feel like I was given. I have heard 2 years is a big step. I have 10 more months to go!!

Thanks for everything and congrats to you!

2 yr anniversary
 

Dear Jen,

Congrats on your 2 yr anny. I will be so glad to reach that milestone. I had BC 10 yrs ago, now I have Her2 Metastatic Grade IV, and hope I get to the point you are now. Am recieving Herceptin and Aridia. I have a CT scheduled for next week, am very nervous of the outcome. After I was diag with BC in April, a bone scan revealed something on spine, then had MRI that determined I had a malignant tumor on spine which had to be dealt with first, I could not lie on my back. Hopefully everything will be okay.

Stay healthy and keep me informed of your progress.

Congratulations! It's so great to reach each milestone!

Dear Jen,

Congrats! I'll be so glad when I get to that mark. I had BC 10 yrs ago and this time it's much more aggressive. I've only had 5 Herceptin treatments so I have a long way to go. Plus I had a tumor on spine that changed it to Metastatic Grace IV, I go for a CT on Fri to see if spine is clear after 18 radiation treatments, how liver and lungs look. Am very nervous as I'm having pain again in region of back that I had tumor. I hope it's nothing but muscle strain. This web site is wonderful for communicating with others who are understanding of what we're having to endure.

Keep in touch and let me know how you are progressing.

hugs,
