Coming Up: 10/13, Metastatic Breast Cancer Day
Add a new word to your vocabulary today: Metastatic.

Metastatic means that what began as a case of early-stage breast cancer has metastasized, or spread to other organs (lungs, bones, etc.) outside the breasts, and is now considered to be stage four cancer.

Other cancers can also metastasize, but whether they do or not depends on a large number of factors. One thing is for certain - regular screenings can prevent the discovery of late stage cancer and can save lives.

Call 866-726-9926 to see if you’re eligible for a NO COST mammogram.
