Hello everyone my name is Rosalinda Perez, I was diagnosed with stage 4 metastatic breast and liver cancer in October 2024. My mom and her identical twin sister had the same thing I had and both died from it, but the last place it spread was to their brain. So the doctor has to keep an extra care to make sure it doesn't travel to my brain.
