Re: 8 years today!!

Congratulations to the members of the 8-year club. I am grateful for 7.5 years of NED for me. I just read Lani's post about the French study endorsing 12-month Herceptin. And now I read that maybe I was lucky to get the 12-months and lucky that my insurance did not question it. As happy as I am, I still mourn our friends that are no longer with us. At the same time, I know they would be happy for us surviors and want us to keep on truckin.
