"At this time I have metastases to many places including my brain, liver, and bones. I want to raise money for metastatic breast cancer research at MSKCC. This type of cancer needs more funding than ever before. Despite the fact that 20-30% of those diagnosed with breast cancer will eventually have a metastasis of their cancer, less than 5% of money donated to breast cancer research goes to the metastatic domain."
