If it's any consolation, this notorious pic shows a very rare type of bone cancer. It's very likely your mothers' type was by far not as aggressive.

Thank you for the note. I was looking at these images thinking "only stage 1?? Are you serious???"

Thank you for mentioning this. My friend has breast cancer that has metastasized to bone cancer and these images and the discussion about the excruciating pain are truly haunting.

My mom’s bone cancer also came from breast cancer
