Wow,
there are a lot of people out there that don't know a lot about IBC. Im from a small town about 2000 people in Newfoundland Canada. When someone mentions breast cancer, their first fear is Inflammatory. But then again, we had a very prominent woman here, who passed two years ago with IBC and she did quite a bit to educate and inform women on this disease. Thank God, I dont have inflammatory but that was my initial fear when I was first diagnosed. I just hope the word can get out on this form of BC>
