Today at chemo, I received a big pink packet of goodies from Genentech: stationery, BC stamps, a pen, a ribbon-shaped cookie and a magnetic poem. The cover letter was written to all Her-2 patients. Part of the copy read:
"As you may know, words of encouragement can be very meaningful to breast cancer patients fighting their disease. You may want to consider sharing your story with other HER2-positive metastatic breast cancer patients on
www.HER2support.org -- a site designed by those and for those with HER2-positive metastataic breast cancer. There you'll find resources, news, and a community of professionals, volunteers, and fellow survivors."
WOW! If Genentech is supplying these packets to everyone on Herceptin, then we can expect our site to blossom! VEry exciting.
Love and light,
Lisa
