Re: How can they know this?
I'm with Rachael, it really is not predictable currently. Your daughter is doing great.
My husband was given 6 months to live in 1998, its 2013 and he is still putting up with me!
Strong & active, living a normal life . . . sounds like an indicator to me she will beat whatever odds are thrown out there.
Imagine how science will change in 5 to 10 years. I don't remember hearing so much talk about Perjeta or TDM1 years five years ago. Now it is part of standard of care.
Take deep long breaths in, hold for count of 4, slowly let breath out. Repeat 7 times.
Envision a future with your daughter happy, healthy and cancer free.
