This is a
booklet produced by the breast care nurse
specialists for anyone who has had a diagnosis of secondary
(metastatic) breast cancer. It may also be useful for family,
friends or carers.
A lot of information and support is
available to you, but it can be difficult to fin djust what you
need when you need it. This booklet is designed to help guide
you to specific sources of information that may be helpful.

This pack aims to help you understand what secondary breast
cancer is and the physical and emotional impact it can have on you
and those around you.

This is a collection of tips written by people with secondary
breast cancer about living with a secondary diagnosis. The booklet
was the idea of a group of women who'd found information for people
with secondary breast cancer hard to come by, and wanted to share
the things they'd discovered that could help people in a similar
situation.
