Ron,
my onc just told me last week that he has had NO ONE recur on the Herceptin trial. Meaning the trial where you get Herceptin for a year after A/C and Taxol. He said even the gals that did NOT get the Herceptin have not recurred. He thinks it's the Taxol 12 weekly doses that might be doing it. given that, your wife has a great chance!!
