Hi @Mez_BCNA, Is there any word on the video link yet from the Mets Database discussion last week?
I found this link that shows that Mets/recurrences don't 'count' on the data base, which is absolutely ridiculous!
Some recurrences/Mets diagnoses are DECADES after the first diagnosis & would have 'dropped off' the previous 'data base' and as we all know, some are diagnosed straight up with Stage 4 too.

How on earth can they do accurate funding forecasts if they don't even know the figures??
