Joe & Dr. Slamon's wife at SACBS - photo

[StephN]

Good afternoon everyone -

I came across this photo of our dear departed Joe and Dr. Dennis Slamon's wife. This was taken at the San Antonio Breast Cancer Symposium maybe in 2004 or 2005.

Anyway Slamon's wife is holding an award given to her husband for presenting the William McGuire Memorial Lecture at that conference.

I attended that lecture with some of the other ladies from this group. We sat in the middle of the front row right in front of the lecturn.

A little later Mrs. Slamon came by our booth.

Thanks for the pic.

Thanks,Steph! As you know, I never met our Joe having only spoken with him on the phone. That was back when we Her-2s were the bells of the ball at San Antonio, right?

[StephN]

Yes, belles.

I think there still is a lot of interest in how we have managed to to rise to the top like nice cream in raw milk.

We have moved from the worst prognosis to somewhere in the middle of the whole breast cancer pack, and maybe improving from there.

Many, many thanks for that from me in England.

I wished I could have met Joe and Christine.

Where would I have been without this site

Best information about Her2 and a great family for us all.

Thanks for posting this pic Steph, and while I never met Joe he sent me many e mails and we chatted about Ireland and many other things so felt he was a dear friend:)
