"On bad days, I always remember this quote: 'It’s ok to fall apart sometimes. Tacos fall apart and we still love them!' During this journey, I have often felt like the cracked taco, trying to hold my shell together." Stacy Stanford, #breastcancer survivor sgk.mn/30UHM8r

Elizabeth has #metastatic #breastcancer. She was dx at 27 after her cancer had already spread to her liver, bones & lungs. We must find the cures for Elizabeth & others like her. Donations made before midnight will go 4x as far. $25 becomes $100 bit.ly/2mL0O1h

Children can have a strong emotional response to a parent's #breastcancer diagnosis. As a reminder, watch for signs of emotional distress that need addressing, both at home and at school. #InternationalChildrensDay

A #breastcancer dx can bring a wide range of emotions including shock, fear, & anger. For men, a sense of stigma attached to the dx can make these feelings even stronger. One way patients can manage their feelings is through a community of support. More: sgk.mn/30tdlYD

It's #unacceptable that someone may be deterred from seeking the tests needed to confirm or rule out a #breastcancer diagnosis because they can't afford it. Help us eliminate the disparity in cost between screening and diagnostic imaging: p2a.co/HsSahIa
