Every day 117 people in the U.S. die of metastatic breast cancer (MBC), also known as Stage 4, where the breast cancer has spread to other parts of the body. Funding MBC research is the only way to find a cure!
ABOUT ME
Hi, my name is Andi, I live in Garden Grove, CA. I am living with stage IV Metastatic Breast Cancer.
I have a few small scars and body pain, I don't always recognize myself in the mirror, and I am a bit of an emotional rollercoaster. Above all I am still me... Andi ? enjoying life as much as possible with love, joy, music, humor, and the taste of metal in my mouth iykyk. I feel so lucky to have a huge support team filled with the love of my life, family, friends, the breast cancer community, and a great medical team. Love you all. Unfortunately, there is no cure for MBC so I will be in treatment for the rest of my life.
Please consider donating to my team supporting METAvivor #lightupmbc for MBC research. Your support brings more possibilities for a cure.

WHAT IS #LightUpMBC ?
The #LightUpMBC campaign is a global initiative aimed at raising awareness and funds for metastatic breast cancer (MBC) research to benefit METAvivor. Held annually in October, the campaign partners with hundreds of iconic landmarks around the world to illuminate in the symbolic MBC awareness colors of green, teal, and pink. By uniting patients, families, and supporters, #LightUpMBC shines a spotlight on the urgent need for more research and resources to improve outcomes for MBC patients.
#LightUpMBC Live is a dynamic virtual event that serves as the centerpiece of the #LightUpMBC campaign, bringing together the metastatic breast cancer (MBC) community and its supporters for an evening of storytelling, inspiration, and impact. Hosted annually on October 13 on Metastatic Breast Cancer Awareness Day, this live-streamed program features powerful stories from MBC patients and their families, musical performances, and appearances by special guests who amplify the mission of raising awareness and funds for MBC research. #LightUpMBC Live provides a platform for education and advocacy, highlighting the urgency of funding scientific breakthroughs for the most advanced stage of breast cancer.
