Re: The Conspiracy To End Cancer

Good article but doesn't give credit to all the women involved in founding this effort. See others at http://www.standup2cancer.org/su2c_leadership#lz. Noreen Fraser is fighting Stage 4 disease. You may want to read her blog.

For everyone like me fighting stage 4
BC, we need to keep visibility on the major fact that 30% of all women
diagnosed with BC will eventually hear from her doctor--"it's back. But only
5% of research dollars are
targeted to understanding metastasis. This is why we still have 40k die of BC each year. This won't change until metastasis is the main focus of research. Metastatic breast cancer is the only breast cancer that kills.
