Re: Possible brain mets? Need help for a friend.

Hi Courtney,

I actually told my friend all about you since you have had such amazing results. She needs to hear stories like yours to give her hope (just in case it is mets). I'm still hoping that this is all just a scare and she will be declared disease free - something we all wish for everyday.

Thanks so much for your input. I am so happy that you are doing so well.

Take care,
