Re: Add me to the brain mets list
Aw, Liz...I am heartsick that you too have to deal with mets to the brain. I remember once at a conference Joe (our webmaster) telling me that 30% of women with metastatic Her 2 will get mets to the brain.
I was researching some study results for Kris and thought you too might be interested in these:

Sometimes a little knowledge is not a good thing; but I think in the long run knowledge is power.
Hang in with us, keep us posted on your progress...and as you said one moment...one day at a time.....
Love Kim from CT
