pickAn interesting read about the development of Herceptin, one of the newer cutting edge immunotherapy cancer drugs for women like me who have HER-2 positive breast cancer. I was struck how ego, aggressive competition can spur scientific breakthroughs. Nonetheless I declined chemo and Herceptin 2 plus years ago. Did surgery and radiation which went really well. I remain in remission but know I have a high likelihood of it returning. ⬇️
SamAnne Prior to diognosis had a few really challenging years and decided to live life and travel—am lucky to be able to do that—for the time being. Currently in beautiful Baja Mexico! Life is beautiful. 7mo
Leftcoastzen Bless you ! Let‘s hope it stays away. Travel seems like great medicine. 7mo
SamAnne @Leftcoastzen thank you and yes! I needed to get fierce again on loving life. I know I need that to survive. Doc said that it could take me 5 years to get back to normal from the drug cocktail they want to give me. I‘m an active person. Chose quality over quantity of time. For the time being! 7mo
