Hi Michelle,

Yes he is a very nice guy. How are you doing? Did you get any feedback of how you are responding to the vaccine? I'll go there on Friday for my 3rd vaccine.

Big hug,

wow, 3rd vaccine already Sherri!!!! That's great. I did hear about the leukophoresis results. It wasn't what i wanted. My immunity did not go up very much. But, they said, the t-cells, the killer cells, could be hiding somewhere else, like my lymph nodes. They really can not tell for sure if the vaccines working or not. If the cancer doesn't come back, then it worked(or it was the Herceptin) and if it comes back it didn't work. Buttttt, they told me the only ones that have recurred ,3 of them, were stage 4 to begin with. Anddddd, my onc told me that 100% of his patients that got the Herceptin arm in the trial have not recurred!!!!!!

You are one of those 100% and you will be fine. I'm glad you are doing fine. Let me know next time you go there, we can plan ahead to meet and have a nice diner.
