Celebrating 2 years (and 1 week!)
Hello, everyone!
I was away from home on my 2 year cancerversary (Dec. 20) and didn't have internet access.
But better late than never.
My tumor was found on routine mammogram October 2006. I had a lumpectomy and 10 lymph nodes removed on December 20, 2006.
I had a chest port put in and started chemo in January 2007. I finished a year of Herceptin in April 2008.
Thanks to all of the HER2 women on this site for your warmth and support!
