Stage 0 - IV unite for a true cure
I believe that we all have to unite as one and demand a cure for breast cancer! Here is the awareness that they are not putting out there enough, over 30% of early stage breast cancer Stages 0- 3 will metastasize all different subtypes and there is NO cure. They will die from breast cancer! Who will become one of the over 30% that will develop metastatic cancer no on knows! And initially 6-7% start of as metastatic cancer right from the start so that is close to 37% will succumb to breast cancer. Over 44,000 lives are lost every year just in the USA. We need more transparency of where the money we raise is going. We want to know what percentage goes for administration cost?What are these administrative cost? What are the salaries of the CEO's of these organizations? It is time to unite and take a stand and demand a true cure. How many more mothers, daughters, friends, fathers, sons, coworkers... Do we have to watch die! We are not disposable. If we stand together are numbers are to great to ignore we have to make a statement and let the world know we want to live and we want more money to go directly for a true cure! After all of the money that is collected and is divided up after all the administrative costs... How is the money that is to go to the caused divided up. I know that actually only 2% of that money goes to metastatic breast cancer . Remember over 30% of breast cancer will become metastatic cancer and Metastatic breast cancer will take your life. I am not trying to frighten anyone I am trying to make you aware. This is truly the facts this is awareness . I think we should all throw out the pink. Cancer is not pink and pretty they have commercialized breast cancer. We should wear all black all day in honor of all the mothers, daughter's, grandmothers, sisters, fathers, sons, aunts, uncles, friends, neighbors and coworkers who have lost there lives while we wait for a cure wear black to all day on October 13th in support of metastatic breast cancer. Wear black to the pink rallies let's turn the pink to black to bring awareness . The organizations want it to be a happy day a pink day but truly is it ? Now that we know the facts and that over 30% of the people at the rallies will develop stage IV metastatic cancer. We must use our large numbers to bring awareness to a true cure. So someday hopefully in the near future no one will die from breast cancer
