Hi to all my triple negative sisters,

I heard this interesting news on ABC this morning, here is the link:  http://www.abc.net.au/news/2013-04-16/patients-receive-chemotherapy/4631246

It's about scientists at the Queensland Institute of Medical Research (QIMR), who say they have found an effective treatment for TNBC in mice.

The scientists hope they could be trialling the treatment in women within five years.

It would be wonderful if it works out and we get more effective treatment for TNBC.
