Congratulations, Jackie! It is so inspiring to everyone to hear news like yours. It gives us all hope. I remember when a diagnosis of her2positive was a death sentence, with 3 months all anyone could expect. I had a close friend who had it and lived only 3 months. There was also a famous athlete in Arizona, only in her 20's, who got this kind of BC and even though every possible treatment was given her she also succumbed in 3 months. I can't remember her name now, but it was so sad because she was so young and beautiful, and had a great career in front of her, but nothing could be done then. We are so blessed now to have hercepten and now tykerb, plus many new chemos. And the future looks even brighter as they are finding new treatments and information every day. Here's to MANY more years for you! Hugs, Tricia
