Washington DC Update
Christine spoke today at the AdvaMed 2007 conference and received a fantastic ovation. She not only spoke for herself but for all of the patients who are HER2 positive about the need for advanced treatment and tests for accurate diagnosis and monitoring cancer status.
One thing that was bought up by another speaker. The government only spends $4.00 per woman annualy on breast cancer research. The American Cancer Society's latest statistics state that one out of eight women will develop breast cancer so a whopping $32.00 is spent per breast cancer patient.
And now: Christine and I have decided to visit old friends in New Jersey and Christine's 92 year old aunt in Smithtown, New York. We will be returning to California on the 9th. Our email will be sporadic, but we will eventually answer everyone's email and solve every problem. So please be patient. It is our first real vacation since Christine had a recurrence in 1999.
Regards
Joe
