Dear Andi,

I've not really known what to write, and I'm so sorry that your journey has taken this turn. I've always wondered what I would do if faced with the challenges that you've confronted and I hope I approach it as bravely and as openly as you are.

For all the drugs that we have, now and in the pipeline, for all the pink ribbons, the truth is there is no cure for breast cancer. It breaks my heart that there aren't better answers for you.

I hope you remain painfree and that your journey, wherever it may lead you, is one that is peaceful and full of love, family and friends.

My best,
Jen
