Debbie,
Please accept my sincere sympathy in the passing of your sister Nicola. She was such an inspiration to so many here. No matter what she was going through she still managed to maintain her sense of humor and offer hope and encouragement to so many. Just like so many other women here who participate in clinical trals shows how unselfish she was. Her participation and that of others here in clinical trails lead the way for many of us. Nicola was a very brave warrior during her fight. Now she is no longer in pain and is at peace. My heart is saddened. I will keep you and Nicola's family in my prayers.
