Hi July 7:

Thanks so much for posting. Your words hit the spot.

No, I didn't know that a significant number of women prefered to get the observation arm. But it makes sense. I too, was hoping to get the observation arm, until I did some research on herceptin.

I think will watch for vaccine trials that might be appropriate. I think it is best to hit this disease fast, right at the begining when your cancer load is lightest. It probably gives you your best chance.
