7 yrs...

Hello my dear Her2 sisters,
I celebrated my 7th cancerversary a few days ago It seems like dozens of years have passed since that awful day. Much has changed in my life since dx and treatment. For the better I must admit. Never thought in the early days of dx. and the first 2 yrs. I would feel good again. I was wrong as I feel great - for so many reasons.

This site for one, it saved me - the site gave me the information and support I needed when the going was tough. The shared information was priceless.

I have to admit with the recent passing of dear Courtney I did not want to post. I was so sad and angry at the disease again that I needed a few days to settle down.

I want to thank all for being such a wonderful, inspiring & loving group (better than family at times). My promise is to remain on the site and offer support to all who need it.

Special love and thanks to my dear sweet Becky...your humor, keen mind and clear thinking is a gift that you have shared and I have thrived on. Love you from the depths of my heart.

Shiela - you are women hear me roar!!! You continue to amaze me.
Your kindness and strength are equal...

Lani - You remind me of lightening - Thank you for all you do for us.

Brenda - Beautiful wise lady and you don't take crap from anyone!

Steph - Steady and dependable - you offer so much calm in a storm.

Chrisy - Another special lady who finds new roads and is not afraid to travel them. Always sharing positive vibes.

Jackie 07 - Thank you for keeping score and your value packed links.

Rich - Hmmm our resident Einestein - thank you.

Harrie - My dear sweet friend - from the Pacific side.

Joan M - Keeping most of us balanced and sane.

What a ride I have enjoyed with all my her2 family - my heartfelt thank you to each one- My greatest wish for us is a cure - yesterday.
To the newer members - know you are cared for and loved here.

Warmest Wishes to all,
Jean
