Dear Al,

April 27 was not a good day for you or for me. I'm so sorry about your loss of your wife on that day. I had my biopsy, 2nd time dealing with BC after 10 yr remission. I've been diagnosed Stage IV metastatic, am hanging in there, take one day at a time. Went thru 18 radiation treatments first for a malignant tumor on spine, that seems to be doing okay, having CT, bone scan and MRI in Oct. Hope it is gone forever. And now doing Herceptin with Aridia.

This web site is so wonderful for people to communicate with others who have either experienced same problems, spouses of people with BC and family members. Such a wonderful, caring group that is so supportive of each other. Let me know how you are doing and I hope each day is somewhat easier than the one before. My thoughts and prayers are with you and your family.
