Whew! What a deal! But I have a good BC friend that is triple negitive and she is doing really well on her treatment meds. I'm not real familiar with the meds she is on, they are different from mine, but they are working! To me the most important thing is to get that path report and some real answers. You're one strong, smart lady and will wrap your mind around whatever is needed to get the best of those BC cells and get them gone! Not knowing is tough, but you're tougher! I have to tell myself..."I'll know when I know...til then I'll trust and believe". I'm praying for ya, girl! Bunches of love, ma
