We know @US_FDA & @NIH has the capacity to speed up better treatments for Covid. It’s time we push them to do the same for metastatic cancer. #cancer #bcsm #lcsm #breastcancer #MetastaticBC #Dying4aCure

Encouraging signal. Await full data. Note that CONTESSA TRIO is still enrolling—and includes patients with or without brain Mets. Cohorts for tnbc any age and HER2 neg age>65 . https://t.co/BxEMNDYZBl

#BreastCancer that stays in the breast is nearly 100% survivable; however when it metastisizes - 70-80% of patients will die within 5 years - and we can’t let that continue to happen.

We need more and better research without disruption #CancerDoesntWaitForCovid #MBC #MBCReality

If someone tells you that active bone mets don’t hurt, they’re lying. The pain just varies, and after being active today - I’m down for the count.

@MelDMann Some people won’t be happy until we’re in a full-fledged second round. #WearADamnMask

Hi, ER Doc here.

If you think wearing a piece of cloth makes it “hard to breathe”, then trust me you do NOT want COVID-19.

[Nancy's Point @NancysPoint]

"The day we call mbc chronic will be the day none of us have to fear opening up our emails or checking into social media and finding yet another breast cancer death of someone we love." - @Martha__Carlson. Amen to that. https://t.co/IesnFgWyf5 #MetsMonday

[Nancy's Point @NancysPoint]

Chronic or terminal? (It's ok to say the latter.) TY for sharing your insights on calling MBC chronic, @stage4kelly, @AMJohnston1315, @abcdiagnosis, @Stickit2Stage4, @ilenealizah, @Martha__Carlson. https://t.co/IesnFhe9DF #MetastaticBC #bcsm #bccww

[Susan G. Komen Advocacy @KomenAdvocacy]

Forty-three states now have laws that require insurers to provide #oralparity. However, federal action is needed to protect the 93 million Americans whose employer-sponsored health plans are not state-regulated. Ask our lawmakers to put patients first! https://t.co/k6LMwafakx

@lorraine @StagecoachGM @wearepreventBC @lorraine Really? How offensive can you be? #bc is no joke #pinkstinks #DontForgetBCMets #IAmALifer

@athleteonchemo Have your nurse bring the med to room temperature. It injects much easier and is less painful!

[Deb Ragosta @debragosta]

This says it all ...
