Re: I heard from Vicki h & have an update.

I am sorry to learn about Vickie. I can hardly stand to check in on this site right now there's been so much heartache to read about. I do read, but usually can't bring myself to post. Day to day I live in a denial bubble of sorts thinking I'm doing okay now and can stay at this rate. But the hard truth is this is a dreaded killer disease and it's systematically reaching us all one by one. I
ve been telling myself the t-dm1 will finally be available to me soon and it will be my weapon, but as with Vickie, there is no safety zone, no armor against this killer. I have scans pet/ct, echo, on Tues. 2/16 and am in a state of fear of what the report will say that this cancer is doing to me now. Vickie, Cap, all the people we have lost recently, and all of us who are still trying to stay strong and weighing heavily on my heart.
