Re: I Need a Pep Talk...Very Discouraged Today

WOW!! do you ladies have any idea of the energy that flows from your words and stories. Denise, if I ever have a health crisis again, I'm going to crawl to Philly and spend time with you because you (and these other wonderful folks) really know how to LIVE. Thanks so much for sharing so much with us.

Wink Re: I Need a Pep Talk...Very Discouraged Today

Hi Denise and Friends,

I'm 12+ years out (Diagnosed Dec 1999).

Stage III, 5.2 cm tumor, 9 infected nodes out of 21, Her2. My kids were 12 and 9 and I was 44 when diagnosed. Kids are now 24 and 21 and I'm still going strong.

Keep the faith! And, best wishes to you all.
Gabrielle
