Update on my friend
Feb. 6th, 2009 09:33 amTrish went to Sloan Kettering yesterday for a second opinion - ALWAYS a good idea, in my opinion. The doctor there said that because her cancer is "hormone driven" she would benefit from a treatment that would block her estrogen production. So that's what they started immediately. She said that the side effects from this treatment, while still not a walk in the park, would be easier on her than chemo. So YAY for Sloan Kettering, second opinions and a ray of hope in a dark time. While no one is talking cure, this treatment may well give her a few more good years. I'm keeping my fingers firmly crossed.
