Janice Cowden: We marched on Capitol Hill with Metavivor Research and Support Inc. to advocate for increased funding for Metastatic Breast Cancer
Janice Cowden, Metastatic Breast Cancer Patient Advocate, made the following post on LinkedIn
“This week we marched on Capitol Hill with Metavivor Research and Support Inc. to advocate for increased funding for Metastatic Breast Cancer, spoke w/ staffers to ask our local/state legislators to support legislation to benefit patients diagnosed w/ MBC, including the Cancer Drug Parity Act & Metastatic Breast Cancer Access to Care Act. And, in order to have better data on MBC, update/modernize the SEER registry.
In addition, we presented a powerful performance of Andrew Silver’s documentary theater play, IV: Our Lives where we speak the words of those living with, and friends who’ve died from, MBC.
Seeing old friends, meeting new ~ an incredible gathering demonstrating that We Are Stronger Together.”
