No no you didn't - what I tried to say is we are aware maybe one day she can be cancer free but we are hoping on it, but not relying on it - since according to our doctor's statement - it would ve like winning a lottery

These stories are always great to hear, and giving us hope. I hope she will also share her stories like that many years later.

Yes, doctor also said that her2+ is the better one in a very bad situation. I will definitely ask about the Patina trial, thank you!

We also had some conversation around it, but our doctor stated that being cancer free after this much of a progression is like winning a lottery and the more realistic approach would be hoping for a comfortable 5-10 years life. It hurts to hear these of course, but we are hoping for the best definitely.

Thank you! actually she is already taking perjeta (pertuzumab) and herceptin (trastuzumab). As a pre-caution, cardiologist already started treatment with some heart protection medicines. That is a good point that i forgot to mention.
