It’s the 2nd of the month - time to stop scrolling for a moment and check in with your body.
Our regular #SecondsOnThe2nd post is here to spotlight the lesser-known symptoms of Metastatic Breast Cancer - signs that are often missed, misdiagnosed, or mistaken for something else entirely.

Metastatic Breast Cancer is living with constant fear - the next scan, symptom, or progression. It’s waking up knowing the disease is still there. Bravery isn’t the absence of fear - it’s moving forward anyway. No one should face this alone. #FabricOfOurLives #MBC #BCAM

Metastatic Breast Cancer shatters lives - plans, bodies, futures. We grieve while we live, hope while we hurt, and smile through the pain. Strength shouldn’t mean survival alone. We need better care, faster access, and real compassion. #FabricOfOurLives #MBC #BCAM25 #Stage4NeedsMore

Metastatic Breast Cancer is ignored in headlines, funding, and data. We speak up, but too often we’re unheard - ignored in policy, in pink, in “awareness.” We are not an afterthought. Don’t look away. Share this. Demand better.

MBC hides in plain sight. It’s the only breast cancer that kills. We live with endless treatment, silent side effects, and fading visibility. Awareness saves lives - bring the unseen into the spotlight. #FabricOfOurLives #BCAM25 #METUPUK #Stage4NeedsMore #DyingForACure

Outside Parliament, we stood together - patients, advocates, and allies - to demand change for everyone living with Metastatic Breast Cancer.
We stood for the 31 women who die every day from MBC.
And we stood for those still waiting - for progress, for visibility, for hope. #METUPUK #BCAM25

Metastatic Breast Cancer Breaks You.
It breaks your body.
It breaks your mind.
And it breaks the hearts of everyone who loves you.
Living with MBC means enduring pain that medicine can’t always reach.
It means watching your strength fade while trying to hold onto hope.

Do you know the difference between recurrence and progression?
It’s a distinction that matters - especially for people living with Metastatic Breast Cancer.
Understanding what they mean can help patients, caregivers, and loved ones better advocate for the right support and next steps.
