Joe - More than a free vacation, the AACR conference was a huge awakening for me. I have been involved in advocacy for the PTA (before cancer), and I've been involved in bc events, but nothing like that. I was overwhelmed with all the information (still sifting) and VERY impressed with you and Christine. I knew you both worked really hard for all of us, but now I know first hand. I have always been proud of being part of this group; but after attending this event and speaking to so many researchers and pharmacetical reps I am extemely proud to know what a huge impact your work has done for us and the industry. I am looking forward to the oncology nurses convention and representing the Her2support organization once again!! I know you will only put forth surveys and information that comes from reliable sources. Thank you for ALL you do!!!
