Laurie, Congratulations! You deserve to celebrate. I had my last herceptin this week and my onc wants me to keep my port in for another year. Oh well. Just glad to be done with treatments. I noticed you are from Massillon, Ohio I grew up in Canal Fulton, Ohio ( jsut down the road from you) Moved to North Carolina 23 years ago. Some of my husband's family still lives there. Small world. Best of luck to you!
