Re: T DM-1 Approved !!

New York Times article-
Phil, take note on the last line, something tells me the writer might have been referring to you? (Means you, Lorraine, and all the others have been recognized).

Today, when I got the text from a company rep about the approval, I jumped out of my seat in the waiting room of my treatment center. I felt such a sense of elation, but also of validation. Since I've been on this trial, two of the drugs have been approved, Perjeta and Kadcyla. It has not been an easy road, being so carefully monitored. But look at the reward. I am proud to have paved even one brick in the road for others.

Like my yoga instructor, Regina, says: "Service to others is the price we pay for being here."
