This is a fundraiser for metastatic breast cancer research. Only 3% of reserach money goes to funding metastatic disease, yet thousands die of it each year. 80% of patients who are diagnosed with MBC die within 5 years of diagnosis. Our patients are in a hurry, yet the medical establishment is not. FDA trials take millions of dollars and 5-7 years to complete. Many of us don't have that long. Any doctor doing promising research in the field of cancer should have the funding they need. I want breast cancer patients to have more options than we do now. 1 in 2 people are touched by cancer in some way, either themselves or a loved one. This charity looks out for you and your loved ones by making sure that doctors pay attention and researchers get the funding they need to extend your life beyond the few months we currently have on standard of care options.
