Maybe her disease was more aggressive than anyone thought. JudieK (one of our members who passed away a couple of months ago) was triple negative. She just loved our site and help so she was a member. When she passed away, we were all in shock too because none of us were aware things went south so quickly for her. So... I guess with some who are triple negative, it might go fast if they get mets.

I am very sorry about your friend.
