Hey Michelle - Good to see you! Been off the boards for a while.

What about herceptin curing us? I keep hearing that. How many people have had early stage herceptin and how many have recurred?

If you get tykerb, let me know. I'd have to sign over the rights to my firstborn to get anything like that from my onc!
