How Many Are We?

The purpose of this thread is to count the number of people lurking or posting on this forum and gather some basic info. We are trying to get a sense of who is out there and add everyone to the collective cyber hug that is this MBC forum.

This is not a thread for discussions. The only thing you need to put in the body of the post is Hi! (in the language of your choice) and/or the year of your diagnosis. This keeps the thread restricted to a simple head count. (number of posts = the number of people posting)

If you are willing to share the year of your stage IV diagnosis, put it in the body of the post. Also note if you are de novo if you choose. De novo means that you were diagnosed with metastasis from the beginning.

Please don't reply to posts to this thread. Reach out to people by PM. This is just a list.

That said, I do check this thread daily and it moves me deeply to see each name added. Sending peace and healing to everyone. Hope to chat with you elsewhere in this forum. Let us know the good and the bad and, of course, whatever is puzzling you. There are a lot of women on this forum ready to help you through this.

    Greetings;

    Stage 3B in 2008, ILC, lumpectomy, 9/10 lymph nodes removed, 7 chemo treatments, 38 radiation treatments

    Stage 4 in 2015, ILC, large tumor in left armpit is wrapped around nerves and blood vessels, so surgery impossible, no radiation; am taking Ibrance and Femara for 1 year now. Have had 3 PET scans; first two showed shrinkage of tumor, third one showed a plateau; What does de novo mean? Is anyone else in a similar position as i am? What does your oncologist tell you about length of life? Would love to chat with someone in my position. Thank you, Diane
