Joe,
I can certainly appreciate your support of other support sites. I do feel it is important that I tell you my experience with one site in particular. I don't know if I should name it, but it is a major support site for BC. When my mom first got dx with Her 2 +, I was looking for lots of info on the internet. When I happend to get on the site, all the info on there let me to believe that Her 2 + automatically meant that you were stage 4 or will be very soon. There was a an attitude even amongst the members that was:"Thank God atleast we are not Her2 +". I know things have changed in the last couple of years with the advent of adjuvant Herceptin, but I did want to spare any new people dx, the anguish and depression that I initially went thought. It was a great pleasure for me to find this site and appreciate all the love, encouragement and info here.
That's my 2 cents worth anyway,
Hugs,
Anne
