Thank you Joan.....yes, cancer is a challenge. A huge one but a challenge we can win and do better at than the cancer does to us. We can't let it, you know!!! Although the cancer woes don't hit me as often as they use too, they still hit me (naturally) and it's something we all have to learn to live with.

After reading your post I remember someone saying to me once that brain mets don't usually occur until after the breast cancer spreads to other parts of the body i.e. lung, bone, liver etc.

Well anyway Joan, thanks for posting here. All of your opinions - experiences and love help each of us. I pray you come out of your down time soon.

Love you...

Mary Jo
