Re: WHY breast cancer treatment can never be "one size fits all"
I agree, Lani, and you may stay on your proverbial soap box as far as I am concerned. I really hope you are correct in your belief that our market driven economy will deliver affordable testing. It feels like we are in the stone age on some of this stuff and another break through is needed to propel us forward into a new era of cancer treatment!
