I wish you were closer too, so I could give you a big hug and cover those gorgeous babies with kisses. I agree with my sisters here that you need a doctor who will fight like H--- for you. I went to a lecture by a find oncologist about breast cancer mets and he described many drug combinations that oncologists try. I know that one will work for you. If your doc is the only game in town, I believe he should be willing to consult with the best cancer center in Australia on your behalf. Congrats also on your sobriety. I know it's the rock on which everything stands. May you live to be driven crazy by your grandchildren!!
