When my Mom was sick and in the hospital, her charts had "prognosis poor" on them several times. We asked her doctor about it and she said that the prognosis is just a snapshot in time, and can change from day to day.
When I asked my Onc about my prognosis he said ten years ago there wouldn't have been much we could do, but today it's a whole different world. Thanks Herceptin!
