Re: For my HER2 Valentines
Hi Steph,
What a thoughtful and very heartfelt post. I always feel the love here and I am so thankful for my Her2 family. Although I am having a difficult time after losing so many of our Her2 sisters...on top of the recent news of our dearest Vicki.
But if they had any say in this I know they would want us to think of them and "smile". To continue on and love and support each other as we always have. So I would like to wish my Her2 family a very Happy Valentines Day packed with lots of love and hugs.
A very special "thank you" to Christine and Joe for making this all possible...without you two there would be no Her2 family. What a blessing you both are to all of us.
Chelee
