first time reading your blog for me and I agree completely. More money for research for stage IV, BUT let’s not forget that awareness of metastatic disease is not shared by the general population or even the rest of the breast cancer community. We may be tired of “awareness” but we need to get the message out about MBC and change the conversation about breast cancer. We still have a long way to go and need to redirect all the enthusiasm and money going to pink ribbons to include us! As a member of MBCN, this is exactly the campaign we are waging.
