Rose,

I am stage IIIc because of the positive internal mammary lymph node found on the PET scan. This is significant in that the cancer, while still in the breast, has spread, putting it at IIIc. I'll never know how many axillary lymph nodes because I began with chemo.

I am so glad to hear you are doing well. Your family is beautiful. I agree, thank God for Herceptin!

Did your tumor shrink a lot from the Herceptin? Mine seems to be disappearing as we speak! I sure hope this is as good an indicator as it feels.

Thank you for responding. It seems everyone has a wonderful story of survival to share with me, but they are all from people in stages 0-II. So it's nice to find you!

Peggy
