2 year Anniversary of being NED
November 7, 2003. 2 years ago, I was getting ready to go under the knife to have my mastectomy and I am so happy to say that I am still here and NED. I am grateful that I was lucky enough to get on the BRCIG study and get an arm with Herceptin. Today is a good day with many more to come.
I want to thank Joe and Christine for this site and all these wonderful women and men that have helped me over the last 2 years understand what was happening to my body and what to ask and how to take a pro-actice stance in my health care. You have made this journey or this path in life for what ever reason a much smoother one. You have all played an intrical part in my recovery and to that I want to say Thank you from the bottom of my heart! I hope you all realize how very special you are to give the time and support that you do to me and others who are just beginning this path and the most important thing you give us is HOPE. 2 years ago, the dx was a lot different then it is now and back then you were my life line and still will be with your experiences and research and humor and commoradity (sp) (joe, we still need spell check, he he). I wish you all A Good Day today too.
