It's been five years this month for me. I remember how desperate I was to find people who had survived bc. I was so thankful to find Christine! Now there are many of us.

I'm grateful for Herceptin! I only got 6 months of it, due to heart problem, but a study or two, including one on the list for the current ASCO convention, seem to show that even a small amount of Herceptin makes a difference! I'm going to assume I got enough!

My chemo brain injury keeps me from posting much, but I so appreciate all you wonderful people and being able to read your posts and hear your encouragement to others.

Five years, and onward!
