I am brca2+ and wondering if anyone is going to attend the FORCE conf. in Oct. in Florida. I'm toying with it. I'd also like to hear from anyone who attended in the past. I was dx in May 2010 with IDC grade 3, node involvement, er/pr+ It was after rads that I got my results showing I'm brca2+ with no family history.  If folks are going, I'd love to connect with you all.

Hugs,

Rachel

    Hi Rachel,

    I'm BRCA2(+) also and I really want to go to the FORCE meeting this fall, as well. 

    I attended a FORCE support group this past winter and the women who went to the conference last year knew SO much!  They told me things that my doctors didn't tell me... and they were right!!

    I plan to educate myself about hereditary BC to the point that I know at least as much as my Drs!

    I'm hesitant to book my flight/hotel just yet because I have 3 kids and ya just never know what may come up on the calender.

    I hope to see you in Florida,

    Karmil

    I am so hoping to go to the conference this year to participate in the show and tell if I can swing it financially. I am having full breast reconstruction with fat grafting and should be all or nearly complete by October.
