Our first Metastatic McGrath Breast Care Nurse
07 June 2023
“I’m sorry, but the intention is to control the disease, we can’t cure it.”
This is the first sentence that most people newly diagnosed with advanced breast cancer will hear.
Advanced or metastatic breast cancer means the cancer cells have spread to other parts of the patient’s body.
These patients have significant healthcare needs and often require high levels of support.
