This is an interesting thread. Thanks for starting it CL.
I like reading about research that I can understand.
When I was first dx. a GP talked to me about
breast cancer being considered a chronic disease. He told
me about the lack of knowledge regarding why breast cancer
cells become dormant and what wakes them up years later.
I appreciate knowing these facts. I know it doesn't tell me
what's going to happen to me but I've never been one to
stick my head in the sand. Thanks for posting that interesting
article.
