Re: People get ready there's a train a'coming... news on pertuzumab, Cleopatra!
Lani,
Thank you for posting such an encouraging news item. I am so excited by posts that indicate we have yet another weapon available to us!!
Chrisy...thanks for chiming in as I knew you have some direct insights that few of us have. When all those smartie pants researchers get excited I can't help but remain hopeful.
This post also explains why my onc recently mentioned pertuzumab. Another good sign that my onc is "on it".
I go forward with an extra dose of hope for a beautiful labor day weekend. Thank you for the gift of hope!!!!
