Re: I'm trying to think positive

Thanks Westcoastgirl. I'd like a list of books to read, the more good information we get the better. My wifes Dx should show up now, thanks for the tip.
I have read to her some of the members survivor stories and she thinks that its something that happens to other people not to her. I really need to get her thinking positive. I know it will help her in the battle aginst her cancer.

Do you know of more stage 4 her2+ survivors? Do they have blogs or postings here? Will you send me a link? 20 years out that is great news!

I know it will take time for her to get positive. If she gets some good news next week it will help her a lot. If her markers go down and shes not in as much pain after chemo I belive her outlook will change.

Thank you all for your support and prayers.
