That's terrific, Colleen, that you're stable and the Zometa is doing such wonderful things for you. Yes, I found your comments really helpful and I do want to get my first infusion going. As I said, my oncologist is setting it up for every six months for three years.
From what you mentioned about what you're doing at Dana-Farber and now with Dr. Gnant's study with Zometa, you're both showing great results and proving this may be another added benefit to overall healing and health.
