Ann Bisgyer Wolz was 38 when breast cancer came into her life.
Two lumpectomies, chemotherapy, radiation, two mastectomies, skin transplants, tumor surgery, more radiation and 14 years later, she\'s still going strong. She\'s been on a new generation of drugs -- drugs that seem to work for about a year before cancer reappears. When it does, she does a round of chemotherapy or radiation, and switches to another drug.
\"Things have changed. Cancer isn\'t a kiss of death. You live a good life, with a good quality of life. It\'s not to say it\'s not scary, and yes, I\'ll probably die of this disease, but my husband and I have tried to keep a balance with it. Nobody has any guarantees,\" Wolz said.
Once breast cancer returns to spread beyond the breast, ut it can be held in check, sometimes for years, depending on how aggressive the tumor proves to be. \"I have a really good quality of life. I\'ve worked hard to maintain it through all the recurrences,\" Wolz said.
Her husband and family tell her not to work so much, but it\'s important to her to keep her hands-on approach to business. She sees quitting work as letting cancer win. And when she\'s not working, she\'s not sitting around. \"Life is precious and I\'m not going to waste my time doing things that aren\'t important to me,\" she said.
Gralow said it\'s \"becoming increasingly more common that women with metastatic breast cancer are living longer, and we have lots of good treatment choices that can be used.\" No matter where breast cancer turns up in the body, if its growth is fueled by estrogen, women have a better chance of longer survival -- and a shot at controlling the cancer with a battery of anti-estrogen drugs instead of needing harsher chemotherapy, at least right away.
a patient who had liver metastases from breast cancer diagnosed in the early 1990s is still doing great. Liver metastases are generally much more life-threatening than bone metastases. Patients who have lived with bone metastases for 10 to 12 years, having never needed chemo. Their disease is being managed with anti-estrogen therapy that has few side effects.
Almost 213,000 U.S. women will be diagnosed with breast cancer this year, and almost 41,000 will die, according to the American Cancer Society. The vast majority survive. There are now alternative and non-invasive therapies that are having immense results with breast cancer survival. These therapies are natural and don't involve dangerous drugs that attack the immune system and cause more damage in the long-term. It is now possible to approach the healing of cancer from a psycho-therapeutic point and get huge survival rates. Chemo and radiation are no longer the only options.
