This could be good news, but too late for my wife and mother-in-law.

Wife died over three years ago and MIL last August.

I wonder if this has any implications in the battle against prostate cancer.

Sorry to hear about your wife and her mother.

My wife had a lump removed recently and just finished the radiation therapy part of it. So far, so good, but I think hers was a different type.

So sorry for your losses. My mother also developed aggressive breast cancer when she was in her 50s. Thankfully she survived that, but she was never the same after.

Hopefully improvements in detection and treatment saves many lives and gives you some comfort to know that others will be spared those same losses.

Thank you Libertylover.

We thought that we had beat it on several occasions, but it kept coming back in different places. Both had HER2. My wife fought it for 9+ years and her mother chose not to fight because we knew the final outcome no matter what the doctors tried.

My time on earth is short, but God’s glory is eternal.

My wife had a lump removed in 2013, but she developed stage 4 in her spine. She was bedridden for three years and died a few months ago.

I wish we had known about this before she had the lumpectomy. Things might have turned out differently:

Hopefully that and others.

Interestingly, this amplification of AAMDC is also found in ovarian, prostate, and lung cancers, so this result might be relevant to other cancer types as well.

It would be great to see a cross cancer treatment. Something a bit more “universal”.

I’m so sorry.

It runs in my family. Sis just had a double mastectomy. She’s doing OK ATM.

Thank you both very much. Everyone’s comments mean a lot to me.

I always try to remind myself that my time on earth is numbered, but God’s time is eternal.
