Triple Negative BC recurrence

Hello everyone

I'm carer for my wife who was diagnosed with Triple Negative in Nov 2010 at age of 27. Had mastectomy + lymph node removal, chemo and radiation. Now 21 months when we were about to plan ahead PET test revealed cancer is back in lymph nodes. Stage 4 secondary breast cancer..

Internet research is scary and advise from Doctor was also not helpful.. My wife is amazing and taking this very lightly and motivating me.. 

She'll be starting with Xeloda soon.. 

Found this group to share information and if any other fighters with similar history would like to hear from them..

Whole journey has made me to think how great women are..
