Hi AA,
As I have mentioned in earlier posts, I am the 12th person on my mom's side of the family to get bc. In your post you mentioned something about your aunt dying of brain mets and wondering if she was her2+. My aunt died from mets to many different places, one of which was the brain and she was triple negative.
She was dx with mets right when Herceptin was approved for use in women with mets. I think her doc was hoping that she was her2+, so he could use Herceptin.
