Do As Much as you Can Now!
Dear Susan:
My wife, Lisa, has been battling this disease for 14 years now. We attacked the disease when she was first diagnosed with as much vigor as we could. She was cancer free for 10 years when she had a recurrance, and we have been fighting it on and off ever since.
My advice would be to take as much treatment now as you can. If there is any question about taking chemo, take it and herceptin and everything else your can. This disease is very difficult to defeat and will lie dormant for years. The adjuvant stage is the point at which you have your best chance to cure yourself. You do not want to look back 3 years from now after a recurrance and say to yourself "Gee if I had only..."
Good Luck and God Bless.
Lisa and Brian
