Sherry
Guys,
I too am concerned about Sherry in WV. She sent me a private message on 8/13 and I responded the same day, but have not heard from her since. At the time she said she was having a hard time concentrating. I pray that all is well with her. Does anyone have any personal contact information?

She e-mailed me recently regarding my thought on her trying Tykerb. I told her if she wanted to try it go for it and fight with all her might to get it. Anything, is worth a try. I hope she is o.k. I was thinking about her today and praying we hear from her soon. hugs, Sandy

worried
I never received an answer from my last two messages to her. One was a HERsupport e-mail and the other was to her private e-mail address. I am really worried. I started doing a search for hospitals in Wellsburg, West Virginia, thinking I might give some of them a call to see if they had treated her. I don't suppose they would have told me anyway. I don't really know what else to do.

Thanks to the internet white pages I have located her address. She has used the city and state she lives in as part of her profile. I could post her full address here, but that might be considered an infringement on her privacy. (you can do the search) I intend to send a card and note to the 'family' - and indicate how I know Sherry via the online HER2 support group.

Thank you Sheryl.
I know Sherry is on our minds and in our prayers. It is tough to know what one would do in the same situation. Keep trying to fight as she expressed she wanted to do, or let the disease have its way and try to make the best of what time you have.
She has many prayers for a miracle, if that is what it takes to keep her with her family.

Sheryl, I am very concerned that you have not heard anything from Sherri. It is almost a month now since her last post and she was not doing well at all then. I pray that we will hear from her soon.
