Patient experience can differ from oncology clinic or cancer research hospital. However, we continue to hear horror stories & patients face too many hurdles pointed out in Susan Rahn recent blog. We need to change this narrative.

This has been a tough year for non-profits. Susan Rahn has done a tremendous job keeping Beth Caldwell vision alive for METUP. Susan is a visionary and will always be part of the METUP story.

Men die everyday of breast cancer. The disease doesn’t discriminate. Some “pink” non-profits continue to marginalize male breast cancer by sexualizing the disease causing men to feel shame. It’s not only misleading it causes men to ignore lumps.

Some major cancer center and oncology clinics are receiving vaccines for patients. Be sure to speak with oncologist about timing of vaccines if in current treatment to ensure effectiveness.

Important news for people living with cancer. Cancer patients need to be prioritized for vaccinations. Please share to cancer communities. @CDC needs to act on this data immediately with state health departments and appropriate state officials.

“This is not to say MBC is not treatable. It is. But referring to MBC as chronic feels like marginalizing a diagnosis that still brings with it a pretty dismal prognosis.” @DrAttai

Consider how quickly treatments & vaccines came to market to start impacting Covid deaths. One year! Cancer researchers are not even talking about number of breast cancer deaths to impact. 40 years of prevention research while nearly 43,000 will die.

Holiday season means something completely different for those living and families of terminally ill metastatic breast patients. We send out hugs for those struggling and families missing loved ones.

Heading into the holidays many face more cancer treatment failures. Don’t let this be our last holiday. We lack effective treatments. Stop the deaths with more research.

Cancer research has become a career instead of a mission. No accountability just a giant money pit. Another year of millions of dollar in breast cancer research with no decrease in deaths. We continue dying in masses.

It's not about treating a disease, but rather taking care of a person. Why words matter and how a right way of communicating makes a difference.

We stand in virtual protest at for men & women dying of metastatic breast cancer. The dying need to be a priority for better treatments & research. Over 42,000 continue to die every year. It is our turn for research! It is your turn to make us a priority.
