I have wondered this myself many times. A new co-worker, Susan, noticed my pink ribbon pin. She told me she had breast cancer 16 years ago. She was 30 years old. Susan was stage ll. She has no idea what Her2 means, they didn't test for that back in 1992. She is well, healthy,beautiful.

I am approaching my 2 year anniversary. Anxiety is running high. I keep reminding myself that Susan is doing great!

Love,
Dana
