Belinda,

I was diagnosed Stage III in October 2005. I'm scheduled to finish my year of Herceptin in June and since my surgery I've been NED. You can look at my signature to get all my details. Don't despair, there are many women on this board who are Stage IV and living a full and wonderful life. I will keep you in my prayers.
