Dodged another bullet!

Friends,

Yesterday I visited with my onc to get my PET/CT fusion results. As he talked about my liver and bone mets and how they were stable, I was holding my breath waiting for him to let us hear about the lung mets. But he never said a word. So I anxiously asked..."and the lung."

"Oh, the scan was clear. There was nothing there." So calm. So nonchalent. While I was jumping up and down inside.

He then immediately began talking about Tykerb. Since he was at ASCO and heard the presentation, he believes I'm the perfect one of his patients to give it a try. His staff is already contacting GSK. As of now, I'll stay on Herceptin and Xeloda. Then when/if Tykerb becomes available, I'll drop Herceptin. (It feels like dropping an old friend.)

Life can truly turn on a dime.

Love and light to all of you,

Lisa
