You are one of my heros and I'm sad that this is a such a frustrating time for you, well that is an understatement isn't it? On this site there was recently posted in either articles or trials something about herceptin and tykerb. I'm not sure if that would be of any help, I'm just trying to think of anything. I am sure we will all be watching ASCO with you in mind and I think trials are a great way to go. I am also hoping that the herceptin dm1 trial will work out. With all of this junk going on, how are you feeling? Sending you much love and best, best wishes for you!

Oh, and how is that gorgeous grandbaby-any new pics?
