Re: CHELEE - How are you these days?

Chelee,
So glad to hear from you!! Sounds as if being busy attending to your health has really paid off. WOW...no walker or cane...Sounds like freedom to me.

I am so impressed that you continued to push when Dr.s were saying that you didn't need a new biopsy. You are an inspiration and I will use you as an example should I have another met.

Please keep us posted on the directin Dr. Slamon establishes for you. I wasn't certain if he would choose a herceptin/tykerb option before moving to herceptin/TDM1.

Congrats on your road to destroying any remaining cancer cells!!!

Chelee,

So good to hear from you. You've always been an inspiration to me since I joined "the club". You keep on fighting! Sending warm fuzzies.
