Help with registering a new member PLEASE!!!

Hello everyone, I have been a member since 2009, but have been absent for quite a while. Sorry!!!

I have a dear friend named Barb whose 87 year old mother was just diagnosed with HER2+ breast cancer. She submitted her registration several days ago and has still not been accepted into this amazing Forum. She registered under her mother's name of Bette R. Does anyone know who is responsible for checking the registration requests???? Any help would be appreciated.

FYI, her mother's pathology report says (I have explained the report to Barb):
Breast, right, partial mastectomy - poorly differentiated (grade III/III)
Invasive ductal carcinoma, 3.3 cm in greatest dimension, with all surgical margins free of tumor (T1NXMX, histologic stage IIA)

Her mom will be starting Herceptin (no chemo) every 3 weeks and Tamoxifen. She also is positive for estrogen receptors.

In the meantime I will ask questions for her, and pass along your wonderful responses.
