Hopeful,

Since the internet there is so much available information to digest that
the dr. are having a diffiuclt time keeping up with the reading material.
Being the patients that we are - who do our homework the dr's have to really
stay on their toes. I truly believe for the most part the days of the
innocent patient coming into the dr's office and just listening and hanging
onto every word, never questioning (my mother's generation) is long time
gone. There are so many unknown possibilities with breast cancer.

Heck - I often chuckle to myself if someday they say that drinking, eating,
and (I doubt this) smoking....has nothing to do with it. We just don't have all the answers just small parts - that we try to put together and make
the best use of.

But the ladies on this board are unbievable! I am beginning to think we should have a Her2 Day...and somehow all of us get together! Now isn't that a nice thought?

Enjoy
Jean
