The MBC: SELF CARE issue, Oct / Nov 2020, Vol 5, No 5, 53 pages
Our fifth annual Metastatic Breast Cancer issue is focused on the theme of self care this year. This breast cancer awareness season, we shine a big spotlight on those in the breast cancer community living with Stage IV breast cancer in their 20s, 30s, and 40s. Those living with incurable breast cancer have a lot to teach the world and the greater breast cancer community about how to give yourself grace and care in these trying times. These are their beautiful stories.
