Sheila,

I am so sad that the Tykerb/Herceptin was not the one-two punch you needed. I am not as versed on this as many of the others on the site, but couldn't something be ADDED to the combo before giving up on it? Don't suppose you can do T/H/ and Avastin? Just thinking out loud here because I so want you to knock that evil crap back to hell where it came from.

You hang in there, Hon.
