Christine Druther, founder of this website, asked if I could post for her due to her eye problem.
She had another checkup recently and her bloodwork and MRI still show NO sign of cancer. She has now been off Herceptin for over 3 years. NED for something like 10 years, if you don't count one brain met.
Great news and we hold Christine dear in our hearts!
Christine's journey was not an easy one, but she prevailed. It's the story ending we all strive for. I am so happy to hear this news. Congratulations to you, Christine, and thank you Steph for posting for her.

Wonderful news about Christine. I hope someone will read all the posts if she is unable to read them all. I hope her eyes get better too! When I think of Christine, I always think of Joe too! He was a trooper and we all still miss him. Thanks, Steph for keeping us in the loop.

I am so happy for Christine. She really deserves to be Ned for everything she gave to others and to start out to us, HER2s on this forum. And also because she went through enough. I also hope her eyes will get better.
Thank you Steph for posting this good news.

Steph,
Thank Christine for checking in, and tell her the news is most welcome! And thank her for starting this group. I'm so grateful for it.
I have a friend in my "in person" support group who has had two brain mets. Whenever I learn about people with a long stretch of NED after brain mets I tell her.
