Re: An Old Warrior faces new battles

Hi from the other Tricia K

Like everyone I was so sorry to read you're in battle mode again, I also was going to suggest Tykerb as an alternative to herceptin.

My advice? keep focusing on that wonderful upcoming trip and all you plan to do there and I know you'll make certain you're well enough to go....the cancer wont dare argue with such a strong and fierce warrior lady!
((((hugs))))
