Times sure have changed since I was dx. 16 years ago. While on chemo tx. I experienced an episode that was later ruled a transic eschemic attack (T.I.A.) It is similar to the symptoms of a stroke but without the lasting effects. Prior to this dx., the doctor thought I had breast cancer brain metastisis. I asked what my prognosis would be and she told me 2 years with whole brain radiation. I was devistated since I was young and had young children 8 mos. to 7 years old. They sure have come a long way with gamma knife and targeted meds.
I'll be praying for a full recovery for you Christine. You are our Poster Child.
Love and Many Blessings from Lu Ann.
