Re: Living Proof will be on 10/10/11 @6pm on Lifetime

Well Ladies tonight is the night to cry your eyes out!! I saw Living Proof years ago on Lifetime and never dreamed I would be dx with HER2 but at least I knew about it. The movie "Five" is also on tonight. These movies gives us a good reason to cry. Crying makes me feel better. My GP wants me to consider Lexapro. He said its good for the stess of cancer. Whats good for the stress of cancer is just getting thru it and have it behind you. So tonight while I am watching these movies I will think of you, my HER2 family.
