Re: I Need a Pep Talk...Very Discouraged Today

Denise my friend dx with me as stage 3 is celebrating seven years out next month and she had fourteen nodes affected!

My other friend is celebrating 25 years out and had 22 positive nodes although she was'nt tested for her2 back then, I'm highly triple positve and so pleased to be seven years out too so please disregard the stats as they dont apply to those of us who had herceptin early stage!!!
