Re: Ten Years Stage 4 … and still A-OK
Very few things in life give me as much cheer as a shout out from so many Her2 sisters - thank you all for your kind words and cheerful greetings.
Karen, Becky, Sarah, Ceesun, Ellie F, Adriana, Tricia - I love seeing your names - it is so comforting seeing old friends on this site for many years.
SusanW, KaiM, Bunty, Pamelamary, 4angel, Dianamk, Pray - it seems like you are nipping at my heels and running after NED. Hang in there, you’re doing good!
annettechen - you just keep on shooting’ for the moon, honey. Hold that beautiful baby close - with today’s research progress I feel like 20 years IS within reach!
crb, lizbeth, amy, Michka, Dizzydoo, FLFrost, Adriana - I feel like you are still in the midst of treatment turmoil and yet you still have the grace to share in my own Yahoo moment - true angels, all of you.
love and hugs times 10,
Kim (from CT)
