>> Some of you may have heard that in mid-October Heidi Holmes was diagnosed with stage 4 breast cancer with significant brain involvement. She and the family thought she had picked up a very bad flu or had picked up Lyme’s disease. She was sleeping a lot and lost many cognitive skills. An MRI revealed the real reason for the symptoms.

The side effects of that drug were such that she has opted to discontinue it and have a better quality of life. Since the treatments Heidi’s cognitive skills have improved. She gets around and engages in small group conversations.
