I have b/c that had one metastatic lesion to brain. Resected, gamma.... know of any long term survivors in this case? Am feeling hopeless and frightened.

So sorry to hear that you're going through this.

There are many long-term BC survivors, even with brain mets. If you use a search engine for BC message boards, you'll find women going through the same.

This disease MUST be eradicated. We do need a cure, but even more, an end to it ever starting in the first place.

We MUST start asking "where is all the money going?"

Blessings to you.
