Very well said, Lolly.

Your comment on the mind/body connection as hidden weapon was put as well as I have ever heard. This should be quoted in the HER2 book that is starting to come together!!

Celina - reading your sister's file was a GOOD thing. SOMEONE close to her needs to know exactly what the docs are reporting and how they are assessing your sister at all times. The fact that she is feeling like walking a couple of miles or going boating for some fresh air is very encouraging.

You're both absolutely right..thanks for reminding about how powerful the mind/will is. Now that I've had a few days to think things over, I KNOW she will continue to improve. God willing, Herceptin will keep it from spreading any further.
If you ask her how she is, she always replies, "I'm better"..she never says, "I'm getting better". She works regularly with a Reichi (Reiki)Master who is helping her to connect with her body so that she can be instrumental in her own healing..another tool in the healing process.
Be well,
Celina
p.s. You Amerians are "unstopable" at the games!!!
