Re: Haven't been on this board for nearly 3 years
I am so sorry to see this today. I have not been on this site for several years. Something made me try to get on this site today.....maybe it was because you were posting a very sad message. My heart breaks for you as I too have a very independent daughter who is very much like your daughter. I will keep her in my prayers and I hope that there are new drugs out there that will help her. I am a 9 1/2 year survivor of stage IIIB Inflammatory BC. I had a very poor chance of surviving and I am still here and ned. You have a lot of people here on this site who will be here for you. Mary L
