I was one of the first people to benefit from Herceptin here as it was approved for early stage BC the week before my dx in 2005. As Herceptin is now ten years out for early stage Dr Slamon is giving a talk and F&Q tomorrow evening in Dublin (Ireland) and I'm really looking forward to it and really believe many of us wouldn't be here still without this drug
