Re: who is lani?

Lani is, as far as I can tell, a fellow Her2 breast cancer survivor who's knowledgeable of the biomedical field. She's well connected with other scientists/researchers and she has been generously sharing her time/effort with us since at least mid 2005.

There's no reason why anyone needs to share anything more than they've already had. The truth is, we don't even know if half of our fellow survivors are using their real names/telling real stories/... Not to mention there are spammers hanging around everyday!

From the 'Members List', we can figure out when a member first joined this group. We can locate all the previous postings using the 'Search' fuction. (Many members deleted their personal information a year or two ago out of the concern of spammers/invaders/Phishers...) Most of us have introduced ourselves when we first joined the group. But some didn't bother with it. Many of us have shared detailed personal/medical information during discussion, but some chose not to do so. Just as I appreciate others' being tolerant to all the personal stories/opinions I've shared (and/or 'forced upon others' , I respect members' choice of privacy.

In the Cyber space, anyone can paint a totally different picture of himself/herself. The purpose/function of this group is to share information/support among fellow survivors/their loved ones/supporters/... Let's continue to use our 'imagination' to paint a picture/write a biography/tell a story ... of our fellow survivors on this board...

(Just my two cents...
