t seems that when women have IBC about 30-35% of the time it is also
TNBC. It can be a very challenging combination to treat and after
helping about ten women with IBC/TN over the last several years it has
become a particular passion of mine. I am hoping that the efforts of the
scientists present will help the women with IBC and IBC/TN. I know it
is a small group, in numbers, and therefore challenging, funding-wise,
but I so admire those who have dedicated their efforts to find a
cure/better treatment for the IBC community.

I agree, we need to bring more attention to both IBC and TNBC, both rare and aggressive... we need more awareness and funding... and a cure.

Hi Sara,
We have many ladies 7 plus years.. I think about 13-14 or more years on this particular forum. I'm well on my way to the 7 year mark. A tiny bit of residual neuropathy, a toe nail problem.. I'd say that's minor in the big scheme of things. LOL
I feel extremely BLESSED to be surrounded by loving family, a grown son and daughter I couldn't be more proud of. 2 college student daughters (actually I really did marry young and my daughter started having babies young) with a total of 5 grands in our blended blessed family. I love them all like there's no tomorrow!
