I guess I was hoping she did not have to go through all that, like most of us did. I know in my case the onc would still recommend a/c today just like he did almost 3 years ago. She goes for a muga this week, maybe treatment will change, depending on results. I am sure she can handle it, I just know it extends the treatment schedule. I cannot wait for the day when we don't have to worry about breast cancer anymore. Come on researchers, lets work; harder, faster and smarter. There has to be a better way.
