Re: 5 year's out from stage 3 Her2 pos 35 pos nodes

Michele - I haven't been on this site for a LONG time! I was thinking about you the other day. Congrats on 5 years! Like you, I'll hit 6 years in just a couple of months. I too was told I had horrible odds. Herceptin changed everything - thank you LORD for herceptin!!
