Hi there, I am a 38 year old Mom of 4, also with an aggressive type of cancer. I am HER2NEU +3, high grade and hormone -. I just finished 4 rounds of chemo along with Herceptin, and my mastectomy will be this month. Then 4 more rounds of chemo.
My advice to you is this: Knowledge is power. Research all you can. Herceptin can be the miracle drug out there for the right people. You probably can only get it though in a clinical trial. Contact the nearest major cancer center and ask about the trials. In the meantime, don't worry about your little girl. I thought the same thing, why would God give me 4 little boys, only to take me from them? This disease can still be curable, it just has to be.
