@berry I struggle with the five year stat. It's quoted all the time but it's a bit of a furphy. There's no tracking of death from breast cancer after that as far as I can tell. The ten year stats are 'all causes'. The five year 91% stat contributes to people thinking BC is basically cured. I have told some very surprised people about the realities. Especially people who tell me BC research gets too much money. Despite the stat that 1 in 7 of us will get BC, there is definitely a lack of knowledge about it out there in wider society.
