I realize that I'm coming into this thread kind of late, but I noticed that there were some of you who live in Northern California (Campbell (my daughter lives there), Saratoga, etc.). I live in Pacific Grove, and I meet so few women who share my experience. I just want to say hi to the ladies near me--it's nice to know that you're not so far away. Love, Rena

Houston area. How great it would be to be able to meet with so many of you.

Wouldn't it be great to have a 3 day weekend getaway where we all meet for fellowship / fun / relaxation??

This could be achieved for all, not just those in the same cities. We could choose a central? non central? meeting place...

Hello,
 
Just found out that the breast cancer I just whipped was Triple Negative.  I was a little discouraged with the re-occurence rates, but I'm praying that it never comes back.
 
I'm in Big Bear, California (3 hours out of Las Vegas).
 
Dx:  7/15/08
8 cycles study: Taxotere/Capcytobine then AC
Radical Mastectomy-R: 2/28/09 9 out of 16 nodes effected
3 cycles Taxotere/Capcytobine
Radiation: 30
Remission: 6/25/2009

Hello Donna from the St. Louis area.

I am Donna from Springfield, Illinois. I do not personally know anyone else with TNBC. In earlier posts there was at least one other gal from Southern Illinois, one other than me from Central Illinois, and several from the Chicago area. Maybe this will let us hear from them again.
