While headlines like this keep rising… so are the unanswered questions no one is talking about.
📈An 18% increase in stage 4 breast cancer isn’t just a statistic—it’s lives, families, and futures being changed far too early.😔
I know this reality personally.
I was diagnosed with incurable, inoperable stage 4 metastatic brain/body cancer…
And I’m still here.
"A US study found diagnoses of stage 4 breast cancer – when the disease has already spread around the body and can no longer be cured – climbed nearly 18 percent over the last decade.
The steepest increases were seen in women under 40, despite breast cancer traditionally being far more common in older patients.
Researchers were particularly concerned by a rapid rise in triple-negative tumours – one of the deadliest and hardest-to-treat forms of the disease, which kills nine in 10 patients once diagnosed at stage 4.
Scientists say they still do not know what is driving the trend. But changes in screening, obesity, women having children later in life and exposure to hormone-disrupting chemicals found in plastics have all been suggested as possible factors."
In my book *Be Your Own Miracle*, I share the mindset shifts, faith practices, and integrative approaches that helped me navigate an incurable, inoperable stage 4 cancer diagnosis.
If you or someone you love is walking through cancer, I invite you to read my story. It may open a different perspective on what healing, strength, and possibility can look like.
