I appreciate this site
I too appreciate the support and factual information on this site. I only knew about Komen when I was first DX. I barely understood HER2. Luckily and thankfully, Tricia from Ireland saw my post on Komen and recommended this site. I would still be depressed and confused if I had not been directed here. Kudos for those who openly share their experiences and keep them on the educational side. Of course, I love the sisterhood support too. Thank you Joe and Christine.
