My Metastatic Memoir

There are about 155,000 Americans living with metastatic breast cancer. On average, people with metastatic breast cancer live only 2-3 years after their diagnosis.  Life with metastatic breast cancer is not well understood by many people.

Members from our Hear My Voice Outreach Program joined together to create My Metastatic Memoir, a collection of stories in various art forms that describe the reality of living with metastatic breast cancer.
