I appreciated her comment about breast cancer being a highly treatable disease, that's a great positive statement to make up front. It does worry me that breast cancer is so prevalent that MSKCC needs TEN full time breast surgeons to help everyone. I would just add that it's so important for breast cancer patients to gather as much knowledge as they can about their diagnosis and suggested treatments. Knowledge is power and an empowered patient is much likelier to be a survivor. -- MarnieClark.com
