Hi -
I am a little tardy in responding as I was away for a few weeks.
But, I am here to tell you that liver mets CAN be beat. I had almost 60% of my liver in tumors over 3.5 years ago and cleaned it out with a Taxol, Navelbine, Herceptin combo. Been on maintenance Herceptin since reaching NED (no evidence of disease).
Am one of those making new stats for tough situations.

If you go to the "community" link in the line just below the photos, and then cllick on "stories" you will find my story and some others that beat some pretty stiff odds with various mets.

Wishing your Mom and you all the best in healing.
