It's really encouraging to hear from you that are already NED. I am working my way there...hoping for NED in maybe another 6-9 months.

I've been getting Navelbine/Herceptin/Xeloda for liver and bone mets since Feb 04. My last scan was reviewed again, and they have now determined that ALL 3 lesions on the vertebrae are gone!!

Woohoo!! And the liver tumors are more than 50% gone.

You ladies help keep my spirits up and the fight going!!! Thanks so much for posting.

I feel as if I write down how long I have been NED I tempt fate. It is about 2 years NED. BC in 5/00, brain mets 10/01 and 10/02. Monday I have a brain MRI so say a prayer for me!

I appreciate that. I hope God is listening.
