“Breast cancer awareness month should be about all stages of breast cancer.
Even with the best screening modalities, thousands of individuals progress to metastatic disease each year. And over 40 k individuals die from metastatic disease in the USA alone.
Ongoing research on recurrence, both early and late, is ongoing.”
