Thank you @RobynNBC4 and @KomenColumbus for helping me to share about #MetastaticBreastCancer and the need for more #research and funding to study treatment and resistance of the breast cancer that kills over 40,000 Americans a year

Off to get platelets. 19 is leaving me too weak and unable to experience life. Plus these nose bleeds since last week have been gnarly. 😔

@4RiseUp It really made a difference,BUT I wouldn’t recommend it around days of blood transfusion. Seemed to heighten blood pooling in in my my legs

Starting to try #KinesioTaping to help with #Pain and #Edema today with my #HomeHealth #PhysicalTherapist. Will also be adding for #lymphedema next week.

Worth a shot!

Komen grantee Dr. @StoverLab finds that liquid biopsy and sequencing can be a powerful tool to monitor #metastatic #TNBC. Read more: https://t.co/LHONp2wrzp

I’m so proud we opened the #GeibFamilyFund!

Although we opened a day too late for Sandie to see, her memory is honored in curative research for her #MM &my #MBC. If you want to see 100% of your money go to research and only to research please consider:

@akknowles1 @JaniceTNBCmets @metavivor Was told this was due to a nationwide oxygen shortage, National oxygen tank shortage, a national aluminum shortage, personally I call an over abundance of BS over-storage… I’m just sick of dealing with all of this.

[Tori Geib @ChefGeib]

@akknowles1 @JaniceTNBCmets @metavivor So it’s coming down FROM the oxygen supplier who is supplied by my Medicare/Medicaid - I do think they also take private insurance but I’m not sure. They count only to Doctors appointments so for me - things I can show on mychart BEFORE my o2 Delivery Date

[Tori Geib @ChefGeib]

@akknowles1 @JaniceTNBCmets @metavivor PS. Always willing to share :)

[Tori Geib @ChefGeib]

@JaniceTNBCmets @akknowles1 @metavivor I can ONLY get enough o2 tanks to go to and from established appts. No room for even QOL appts aside from standard mileage to and from at med center (ie no massage/cupping/acupuncture) &non added for mileage to grab food on the way home. Just strait there and back.

[Tori Geib @ChefGeib]

@akknowles1 You bet your sweet bippy I do 🤣

[Tori Geib @ChefGeib]

@Stickit2Stage4 @LizSzabo It may be mixed - between scared to death parents (I would be), and where the trial is located (close to home vs would a parent have to move to access the trial at a place like St Jude) and cost of living considerations to their whole family.

[Tori Geib @ChefGeib]

@LizSzabo @Stickit2Stage4 Also teens 12 and over have a similar med metabolism to adults (think the side of a bottle of Tylenol even for dosing) so we cant count on their dose to safely treat a 4 year old with cancer. Yes, it’s sad and tragic - but THIS is why #CurativeResearch is so necessary

[Tori Geib @ChefGeib]

@NancysPoint True. I just remember how much AIDS red ribbon “gear” was marketed to me as a high schooler when MTV was hot with the VJ’s and TRL .. whoa I just aged myself lol #ClassOf2004

Then working in politics in College all we saw was go Red for Women

[Tori Geib @ChefGeib]

@NancysPoint It also makes me cringe a bit when a company says “regardless of how much is sold we’ll only donate this.

Ok, so I just bought this thinking I was helping to donate & instead I just helped your bottom line? Total pink washing. I stopped buying a couple brands for doing this.

[Tori Geib @ChefGeib]

@TinaPirlot Nah - I’m having Count Chocula 🤣

October 9. One of the most frustrating things about pink vomited all over everything this month is that it ignores the MEN that get breast cancer, including metastatic breast cancer. 1/

You are very welcome! Sorry the icing up top didn’t hold up for mom on the drive over 🤦🏼‍♀️ all else did though!

Wish I could have been there but after decorating it after chemo yesterday. I was thankful mom volunteered 💙

[Lisa Prouse @OrangeSlushie]

Thank you @ChefGeib for the awesome and delicious cake today!
