Fantastic support for women who have Stage 4 breast cancer BUT I've come to realise that our discussions should be in the public arena, not behind closed doors. The 4 support chat rooms I belong to are all run by recognised cancer organisations both here and in America, and all 3 of the Australian ones have a section for Advanced, Metastatic or Stage 4 breast cancer but you have to apply to be a member and they are set to "Private." Hence my comment about organisations in another recent post.
By keeping my postings to the public domain I am helping raise awareness of Stage 4 cancer and not continuing to marginalise myself!
With love
