That says it all to me Lani. I can remember asking Mom's surgeon why she would be so sure that an elderly, obviously non-estrogen-prodcing (hysterectomy) woman would have an estrogen dependent tumor type. She didn't know, but still insisted it would be ER+.

We all know the outcome of that arrogant position.
