Re: percentage of those who respond to Herceptin
Wow. I too was hoping chances for no-recurrence in 5yrs was better than 30% (1 out of 3). But then again, we are all just guaranteed here and now. Everyday we drive our car or ride with somebody our time on earth may be up. So...getting caught up in the number game is not something I want to do :-) after all, my time is still in gods hands. I have to keep reminding myself that.
