I"m actually stage 4 breast cancer. mets in bones and lung… and I am now pain free, living great life. oncologist says I will live 6-10 years… I"m 55, so I’m feeling great about this.
Just remember, you are not your relatives and BC treatments are evolving at such a pace, that new treatments are always just around the corner. as long as you are mobile and can communicate and have no or manageable pain, you can still live your best life!
Recently a friend of mine passed away with Motor Neuron disease, aged 58. within 18 mths of Dx he couldnt walk or talk… he was communicating with eye movements… All us with cancer are in a much better place than MND…
Just stay healthy, eat well, exercise regularly, get good sleep and don’t take shit from anyone… and you can lead a great life!!
best wishes, Susan
