Thank you for starting this meaningful conversation and being open about your journey. Three years represents significant strength and resilience, and sharing your timeline can help others in this community feel less alone in their own experiences. It's valuable when community members connect over these shared experiences, as the length of time living with metastatic breast cancer can vary so much from person to person, and hearing different perspectives often provides comfort and hope to others navigating similar paths.

Ladies, keep a happy and hopeful attitude. Surround yourself with friends and family that lift you up. Let go of the constant complainers and negative Nellies. Do things you love to keep you busy. Praying y'all do very well, better than 9 + years. Sending love and prayers to you ❣️🙏
