Re: NEDenise Has Died

It is frustrating that Denise was not able to benefit from some of the new technology that seems to be ongoing. Nina just went to a two year followup with the disease in full remission in both the spine and brain (on the brain surface). Four years ago she had a 5 cm spot on the brain and was told to make plans. All I can say is work hard to get the best treatment you can. Denise fought for this for herself, but was stymied as to how to get IT Herceptin like Nina has had. I am hoping the medical community hears enough cases to look more fully at this possible treatment method. Denise provided inspiration for many. We stayed in contact for the last two years. It is truly hard to lose a hero like her.
