I thank you for bringing this %2 allocation of cancer research funds for stage 4 cancers. I’m a nine year bc mets person and need to eliminate survivor from my vocabulary. I feel robbed. I have been blessed with a body holding unto hormonal therapies but what’s in my future?
How can I help? Sue
Thank you, Sue. For ideas, please contact /METAvivor.
Sue, There is also a discussion board on BreastCancer.org you might find helpful.
Sue, thank you for your support. You’ll find our contact information posted on our website (www.metavivor.org). Would love to hear from you. METAvivor can use all the support it can get.

I am a survivor 11 years stage IV and have had to switch therapies 3 times when they quit working. I do not know how many more there are out there. The docs have told me that I will be on my current regiem until my kidneys can no longer take it. I get very frustrated because so many of the dollars go for funding activities such as the American Cancer Society Look Good Feel Good support. It is fine to look good and feel good but I would rather be alive.
Thank you for sharing this, Marie. The funding allocations clearly have to change. Keep speaking out, and check in with CJ about her work with METAvivor.
Thank you CJ for your excellent advocacy for all of us living with metastatic breast cancer. YES… we need research focused on metastases…. if our mets could be stable.. under control… we could all live – and then the huge fear of bc wouldn’t be and mbc would become a TRULY chronic condition. None of this will ever happen on 2%. How do we change this?
