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.

Don't believe I've ever posted in this particular discussion board before, so thought I'd add my name to the list. Diagnosed Stage 1 in October 2009; Stage IV in November 2018. My beloved husband of almost 47 years passed away in July of 2018 and I fractured my left humerus the night he died. Turned out to be a pathologic fracture and wasn't diagnosed Stage IV till the end of November. Am ER/PR+, HER2-. After almost 3 years on Ibrance, started 2nd line of treatment on Piqray in December 2021. Moved from Atlanta to Boynton Beach, FL to follow my only son. Have had a lot of issues with Piqray, but am hoping to get them worked out. I don't post on BCO very much anymore because sadly there isn't really a forum for Piqray, or at least at the time I started they referred everyone to the FB group for Piqray. I'll try to do better.
