Re: October breast awareness-LA Times

MCS,

I applaud your initiative to write the LA Times. The majority of your email was great stuff. The only concern I have is the dramatic ending about the sword on your head & similar comments.

We should direct our anger at the real enemy: Cancer.

In order to educate the public about Her2 breast cancer we might not want to risk putting a potential source of help on the defensive.

I think your idea to contact the Times is awesome. Are you helping to get the word out on the FDA decision not to FastTrack TDM1?
