Beating the Odds as a 5 YEAR MTNBC THRIVER with Podcast Host - Wren Morrobel!

from Living Our Breast Lives · host Living Our Breast Lives

Join Living Our Breast Lives founder, Wren, for this fierce solo episode as she delves into the significance of her 5 YEAR MBC Anniversary as a 35 year old mTNBC Thriver! Hear her compelling diagnosis story and engage in an empowering conversation about advocacy and the critical importance of continued funding for Metastatic Breast Cancer research! Wren is currently 4.5 years No Evidence of Disease (NED) and 5 years living with MBC when the statistics said only 12% of women with the Triple Negative subtype will make it to that five year mark. In this episode she talks about her current immunotherapy, the power behind science, research, and funding, and continuing to advocate for herself as a patient advocate.Five years of pure hardship, but more importantly, five years of growth and beauty. Although Wren's journey comes with scars, trauma, and grief, she is a beautiful, yet imperfect work of art, and reminder that we must have hope that there are better days to come. **This episode is a tribute to all the MBC Thrivers out there who we’ve lost along the way, and to the people who doubted I’d still be here five years later.**Understanding Triple Negative Breast Cancer: As breast cancer affects an increasing number of women under 50, more attention has turned to TNBC, an aggressive subtype that disproportionately affects younger women. TNBC is defined by what it lacks. While 85% of breast cancers are classified by three common markers—markers that give treatments a target to attack—TNBC has none of those, meaning it has fewer treatment options making it harder to treat. ____________________________________________________Living Our Breast Lives:Instagram: @livingourbreastlivesFounder: Wren @wren_morr on InstagramLightUpMBC Personal Fundraising Page:donate.metavivor.org/fundraiser/5564372METAvivor Research & Support:Instagram: @metavivorDonate to Stage IV Research: donate.metavivor.org
