TT is smiling!

My HER2 test came back negative today! This was such a huge relief, thank you for the prayers and good thoughts. We are taking things one day at a time, but today sure gave us reason to smile!

What is HER2?

HER2-positive breast cancer is a breast cancer that tests positive for a protein called human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2), which promotes the growth of cancer cells. In about 1 of every 5 breastcancers, the cancer cells have a gene mutation that makes an excess of the HER2 protein. (Source: Mayo Clinic)
