Chronic vs Terminal: Living In Between | Episode 14

In this episode, we take on a question that feels a little like defining a relationship: what do we actually call metastatic breast cancer? Is it a chronic illness? A terminal disease? Both?
We unpack the pros and cons of each label, how those words shape understanding for ourselves and for others, and why neither one fully captures the reality of living with MBC. From the way these terms impact hope and identity to how they influence conversations with family, friends, and the medical community, we explore what’s at stake in the language we use.
Because sometimes, like any complicated relationship… it’s not so easy to define.
We wrap up with an exciting announcement about our friend, Becky, who is gearing up to run the Missoula Marathon at the end of June. Becky is fundraising for MBCure, and as we all know by now, metastatic breast cancer research is grossly underfunded. So, let's help Becky crush her fundraising goal!
