    Bonjour Pinklemon,

    I am from Gatineau,QC and I have been diagnosized last year and I am currently on Herceptin. When have you been diagnosized and which regimen have you been given because as per this web site it seems that the regimen are quite different in Canada. Most of the people on this web site seem getting weekly chemo and I actually had mine on a 3 weeks cycle. (AC then Taxol/herceptin). I really like this web site there are a lots of information and find this web site good for my morale.

    I am cancer free for 13 years now! I only got radiation. But I can tell you that my sister in law is being treated presently, in a very well know hospital for breast cancer in Montreal, and she is on a 3 weeks cycle too. i hope it will reassure you a little!

    Is your first language french or english? I am French.

    Hi there!  I`m from Montreal and was just diagnosed yesterday.  Waiting for surgery and then chemo.  Totally freaking out.  I just found this website and it is encouraging to read the stories of courage from everyone.  May God bless us all.
