Linda,

So good to hear from you. Your husband is such a wealth of information to us all.

Glad to hear that you are adding Avastin. I was on it for awhile, but my skin mets progressed. Every drug works differently for each of us. I had Avastin and Gemzar. I was off Herceptin, as Onc. convinced me that Herceptin had failed for me, even though I was strongly HER2+++. I will pray that Avastin will knock those darned "bad" cells out of your body for a VERY LONG cancer free time. As you mentioned, prayer is a big part of the process, as well as knowledge. Prayers have carried me through some rough times too.

Keep the faith.

God Bless,
Cindi.
