It's My Cancerversary - One Year Out!

One year ago today, Dec. 18, 2007, I underwent my MRM for my ER+PR+HER2+ BC. Of course I was terrified at the time, because my onc. had already told me that Her2 was more "aggressive."

Luckily I found this wonderful site, and the information and support I have gleaned from it certainly has lifted my spirits and kept me going throughout the past year of treatment. I have just completed #10 of 17 Herceptin infusions, and if all goes well will finish on May 8, 2008 (but who's counting?).

Thank you Joe and Christine, and all the amazing women and men on this site.

all the best
