I know that Dr. DiGiovanna is a leading her2 researcher from a respected institution, Yale, so that is why I posted this controversial article of his. And I don't think he should have used the word cure either. Lets face it, even after five years, there's still relapse risk, albiet somewhat less than the first few years after diagnosis. I posted an article earlier this year, where Dr. Winer believes 1/3 of her2+ relapse the first few years.
