just wondering if anyone here is going. I know the forum search function is very problematic, but am a bit surprised not to see more mentions of it.
If anyone doesn't know/wants to know more about it:

Hi Alliere - I'm a member of FORCE ... and also a triple negative, BRCA1+. I went to the conference last year. It was very informative ... For those of us who are BRCA positive or otherwise at high risk, they really have the best and latest inof. I met a lot of great women - a couple from here and many from the FORCE boards. This year, I can't make it. I hope you're going! I also hope the conference info was posted in the Section for those at High Risk of BC and High Risk of a Recurrence. Take Care, CalGal Trip Neg, BRCA1, Dx'd 9/04; Mets Dx'd 12/05
