Re: 12 years and still counting

Elaine,
Your signature didn't give me much info... were you stage IV? I'd like to join others in this thread with a congrats remark, but you have chosen to not share your story and I feel very left out.
I don't understand your reasons for not filling out your signature, but in the name of her2support, I feel that you need to do your part and share some of your story. What was your original diagnosis? Did you get Herceptin?
Please respond with your answers and help others to get the support they need.
