Hi to you all, and thank you for the kind words on the poem.
I just returned to Denver,from LA after seeing Dr Slamon. He gave me wonderful news. He said that in the past two years there have been so many new developments that things are looking very positive for those of us with "Cancer". We need to look at things in a much different way now! He is extremely nice and down to earth, so when He looked me in the eyes with a "BEAUTIFUL" smile and said go off Herceptin, and Aromasin, get rid of some of those side effects (could not promise all would go away) and live your life. There was no way to not believe him. He feels our oncologists out there need to know from the findings the past two years that we have every opportunity to (as he told me) "not die of breast cancer but from something else" ... my husband said like being hit by a bus and he said yes. So I am going to watch carefully for that bus and hopefully as I clean out the meds I will also be able to leave behind the meds I take for those meds and get my body back to a happy one!

Hugs and love to you all...
Marily truly NED and loveing it : )
