| Inspire @InspireIsHealth RT @coffeemommy: Compelled to share this. Hope you are compelled to watch it. Smiles & tears. ❤️Jason's wife is dying of metastatic breast cancer. MBC kills 114 EVERY day. It's killed my friends. It's killed my friends' friends. We must do better. #cancerblowsdonkeys #Stageivneedsmore #bcsm |
| Alicia C. Staley @stales T1 - October is coming up. And the #BCSM crew knows what that means! Pinktober is here. |
| Alicia C. Staley @stales T1: We want to make this October's awareness month something meaningful and actionable this year. #bcsm |
| Danielle Karber @danielle_dk 🤢 #BCSM |
| Alicia C. Staley @stales T1: Tell us, what do you want #BCSM to do this October? What topics do you want us to address and offer solutions for? |

| Alicia C. Staley @stales Don't forget to tag your tweets with #BCSM so we can see them |
| Danielle Karber @danielle_dk Brainstorming on how to get the word out that BC is not the “good” cancer, that it’s not all pink tutus and rainbows, and that 113 people die DAILY from this disease. (In a nice way.) 😂#BCSM |
| Kathy Gori @kathygori @stales Pinkwashing and the constant marketing of everything breast cancer plus the bullshit false security it’s marketed under as “prevention” when it’s really about Mets research. That’s the name of the game! #bcsm |
| Stephanie Graff, MD, FACP, FASCO @DrSGraff @stales I would love to see the lay-public better understand clinical trials. Interpretation vs headlines; but also value of participating at all levels of (cancer) care. #bcsm |
| Alicia C. Staley @stales Some other topics of interest that we will cover ---- Clinical Trials, Male Breast Cancer, Metastatic Breast Cancer....... #bcsm |
| Alicia C. Staley @stales @DrSGraff Great point - we need to find a better way to share information about trials with the community #bcsm |
| Alicia C. Staley @stales @kathygori Great point! #bcsm |
| Alicia C. Staley @stales @danielle_dk Yes, it's a constant Challenge #bcsm |
 | Julia Maués @itsnot_pink Hello #bcsm! I’ve never done this before. I’ve been living with MBC for 5.5 years and live in DC |
| Kathy Gori @kathygori @jumauba Welcome! #bcsm |
| Alicia C. Staley @stales @jumauba Welcome! Thanks for joining us #bcsm |
 | Dr. Kelly Shanahan @stage4kelly @stales T1. Fight the pinkwashing. Educate how slapping pink ribbons on crap rarely does anything (except for those few products that donate substantially to orgs like @BCRFcure) #bcsm |
| Alicia C. Staley @stales @stage4kelly hey there! #bcsm |
| Alicia C. Staley @stales Twitter is slow right now, bear with us! #bcsm |
 | Social✽Fly @socflyny @stales Not enough lead time, but I'd love to get some major companies marketing products with a pink ribbons to attend a BC education and sensitivity seminar and some of our AGs holding their feet to the fire for not providing transparency on their pink ribbon merchandise. #bcsm |

 | patty spears @paspears88 @DrSGraff @stales Clinical Trials are changing (eligibility broadening, PROs, placebo, blinding).... lots of new guidances.... we need to get the information out... it is important... love this idea for an October Message #bcsm |

 | swaggsheila @swaggsheila1 @double_whammied AA women have a higher mortality rate of breast cancer than any other race. #BCSM |
| Social✽Fly @socflyny @stales Especially those who continue to use ingredients that are known phytoestrogens (@LeanCuisine @WeightWatchers #ProgressoSoup), or on products that are known risk factors (alcohol) ... you get the drift. #bcsm |

| Shanna Marzilli @Shanna_Marzilli On the topic of cause marketing, trying to bring the corporations under the tent. Some will want to tell the right story of equipped with why and how. There’s an opportunity for corps to lead here. #BCSM |
| Alicia C. Staley @stales @swaggsheila1 @double_whammied We need to discuss that. #bcsm |
| Julia Maués @itsnot_pink @stales Oh Pinktober! So dreaded by the MBC community. I’m sure there are good things that come from it, but maybe there could be a website to keep track of all the pink stuff and where the money goes... #bcsm |
| Dr. Kelly Shanahan @stage4kelly @itsthebunk @stales Happy birthday Liza and I’ll be sending easy surgery thoughts to you Friday #bcsm |
| Alicia C. Staley @stales Yes - we need to discuss! Thank you for bringing this up! RT @swaggsheila1 @stales Racial disparities #BCSM |
| Dr. Rebecca B. Riggins 🇻🇮👩🏻🔬⛵️ @Prof_Riggins @jumauba Hi Julia!! #bcsm |
| patty spears @paspears88 Pink is not the enemy .... CANCER is the enemy. With all the misinformation out there, educating the public with the facts will make more of an impact. Just my 2 cents... #cancerkills #pinkisjustacolor #clinicaltrials #bcsm |
| swaggsheila @swaggsheila1 @stales @double_whammied 42 percent higher. #bcsm |

| Social✽Fly @socflyny @stales @LeanCuisine @WeightWatchers And don't get me started on the #breastcancercoin which appears to have ties to @BCRFcure -- they of all BC organizations know better. ZERO transparency on the breakdown on what % of purchase price is going to the organization or to research. #bcsm |

| Dr. Kelly Shanahan @stage4kelly @kathygori @stales @BCRFcure Hello from east of you - no smoke and gorgeous weather here in Tahoe #bcsm |
| Dr. Kelly Shanahan @stage4kelly @socflyny @stales @LeanCuisine @WeightWatchers @BCRFcure We all need to #ThinkBeforeYouPink #bcsm |
| Danielle Karber @danielle_dk Could someonecome up with a infographic or something that we could post in comments or email to EVERY company marketing the pink ribbon? If everyone did the exact same thing we could possibly make some impact... #BCSM |
| Alicia C. Staley @stales T2 coming up #bcsm |
| patty spears @paspears88 @stales @swaggsheila1 @double_whammied And AA women are underrepresented in clinical trials - need to address all issues around health disparities in breast cancer #bcsm |
| Social✽Fly @socflyny @Shanna_Marzilli I'd love to find a role leading this effort for a corporate philanthropy team. No one is doing it right. #bcsm |
| Alicia C. Staley @stales T2: What's one collective action we can take as a community to enhance the awareness message next month? #bcsm |
| Kathy Gori @kathygori @swaggsheila1 @stales @double_whammied And more TNBC in AA women also which is harder to treat . The first time I was dx’ed the only women in my support group that had triple neg cancer besides myself were AA women. #bcsm |

| Dr. Kelly Shanahan @stage4kelly @stales T2. Emphasize that we’re plenty aware of BC and we need ACTION: more research, especially for killer MBC #bcsm |
| Social✽Fly @socflyny @kathygori @stales I'd like to eliminate "prevention" from the discussion >>> Risk Reduction! #bcsm |
| Danielle Karber @danielle_dk T2: Same idea as my previous comment. Someone create an infographic or something that we can post in comments, or email to companies about pinkwashing, etc. But we all need to have the same message.#BCSM |
| Dr. Deanna Attai @DrAttai @paspears88 There are many patients (and families) who wear pink like a badge of courage for what they went thru #bcsm |
| Julia Maués @itsnot_pink @paspears88 I agree is not the enemy. But if so much money is given to pink campaigns marketed as saving lives, we should make sure people are aware where their money is actually going. #bcsm |
| Social✽Fly @socflyny @danielle_dk An edgier campaign is needed. "Nice" is how BC became the "good" cancer. 😉 #bcsm |
| Dr. Kelly Shanahan @stage4kelly @stales I’d love to see the name changed from BC Awareness Month to BC ACTION Month!! Could be everything from corporate $ for research to driving a neighbor to chemo to calling elected reps. #bcsm |
 | Barbara Jacoby @letlifehappen RT @BreastAdvocate: "The tattooing was like therapy, a surgery for the soul." #BreastCancer #bcsm https://t.co/vWVUYsayde |
| Alicia C. Staley @stales @stage4kelly We can make that change, starting with #BCSM !!! |
 | Double Whammy @double_whammied RT @kathygori: @swaggsheila1 @stales @double_whammied And more TNBC in AA women also which is harder to treat . The first time I was dx’ed the only women in my support group that had triple neg cancer besides myself were AA women. #bcsm |
| Social✽Fly @socflyny @stage4kelly @stales @LeanCuisine @WeightWatchers @BCRFcure Someone started that initiative a few years ago, but haven't seen much from it in recent years. #bcsm |
| Dr. Kelly Shanahan @stage4kelly @paspears88 Pink may not be the enemy, but it can breed complacency if everyone thinks BC is pretty and pink and easy and of course no one can die from something wrapped in fluff. #bcsm |
| Social✽Fly @socflyny @danielle_dk There are many people in this community that share the frustration -- and unified front (MBC and non-MBC) would be very powerful. #bcsm |
| Stephanie Graff, MD, FACP, FASCO @DrSGraff @stales A simple thing would be a #bcsm messaging calendar for the month—facts about trials, disparities, stages, risks, worthwhile charities that the collective voice of #bcsm could tweet. |
| Dr. Kelly Shanahan @stage4kelly @socflyny @stales @LeanCuisine @WeightWatchers @BCRFcure It was Breast Cancer Action. #bcsm |
| Alicia C. Staley @stales RT @DrSGraff: @stales A simple thing would be a #bcsm messaging calendar for the month—facts about trials, disparities, stages, risks, worthwhile charities that the collective voice of #bcsm could tweet. |
| Kathy Gori @kathygori @DrAttai @paspears88 I associate the pink stuff with the idea of a false sense of security that comes along with it. The thing that annoys me is what I see as a certain attitude about BC that one gets through it and then it’s gone . No talk of recurrence, which is why we get the “good cancer” #bcsm |
| Dr. Kelly Shanahan @stage4kelly @DrSGraff @stales We in the mets community have shared 31 facts about MBC - Info from @ihatebreastcanc and graphic by Andrea Parker, who is dying as I type. #bcsm |
| Dennis Keim @denniskeim Seem to me that focusing on the fact that an early stage diagnosis is no guarantee of a cancer-free life. #bcsm |

| Terri Coutee @6state RT @double_whammied: It's almost Pinktober, aka #breastcancer awareness month. What do YOU want women (and men) to be aware of when it comes to this disease? #bcsm #amsm #bccww Me? It's not always a lump. Mamms arent perfect. Dense breast tissue ups your risk in 2 ways; know your density! |
| Kathy Gori @kathygori @denniskeim Yes, this! #bcsm |
| Social✽Fly @socflyny @stage4kelly @stales @LeanCuisine @WeightWatchers @BCRFcure You may be right. I thought they had a different hashtag. Either way, it seems the outrage has really tempered in the past few years. #bcsm |

| patty spears @paspears88 @stales MBC Alliance had a twitter toolkit with 'facts about MBC' memes.. .. I would like more active messaging about clinical trials - ask about clinical trials - Did you know - what you can do - see if we can affect accrual somehow...or at least those asking about trials #bcsm |
| Alicia C. Staley @stales @GraceCordovano hi there! #bcsm |
| Alicia C. Staley @stales @paspears88 this is great info, and a great suggestion! #bcsm |
| Enlightening Results 💡 @GraceCordovano @stales T2)Continue to share your patient expertise & life stories. Some of the most profound messages are in your lives experiences. No better awareness, inspiration, & reality check. #bcsm |

| Enlightening Results 💡 @GraceCordovano @stales Hi Alicia! Great discussion. #bcsm |
| Dr. Kelly Shanahan @stage4kelly @paspears88 @stales We definitely need more people enrolling, which will be a challenge until more trials come to the patient rather than making the patient travel great distance to the trial center. Most of us don’t live in cities with comprehensive cancer centers. #bcsm |
| Shanna Marzilli @Shanna_Marzilli Remember the cardinal rule of communications - know our audience. I think we forget that most people we want to reach aren’t as knowledgeable and passionate . We need to start where they are + make our message compelling and simple. #bcsm |

| Alicia C. Staley @stales @danielle_dk oh wow #bcsm |
| Dr. Kelly Shanahan @stage4kelly @danielle_dk Love this in that they are transparent about how much is donated and where it goes - and @LivingBeyondBC is a worthy organization. #bcsm |
| patty spears @paspears88 @kathygori @DrAttai I think most people just like pink ... not everyone thinks the same thing about the color pink, means different things to different people... better to focus and put energy into getting information out to dispel myths not to attack the color pink IMHO #bcsm |

 | SPECFORD59 @SPECFORD59 @stales @denniskeim #BCSM #bullseye DrBernieFisher and thousands of brave trial participants have proven years ago that breast cancer is a systemic disease. Tumors 1cm or less have a significant chance of showing up as metastatic disease 10-25 years later. |
| Jamie Holloway, PhD @jamienholloway Agree. Transparency is important, and so is sending the money to a great organization. #bcsm |
| Alicia C. Staley @stales I hope everyone is hanging in there! #bcsm |

| Dr. Kelly Shanahan @stage4kelly @stales I missed you guys while I was traveling and I’m glad to be here tonight - and I’ll need all of you to survive Pinktober!! #bcsm |
| Jamie Holloway, PhD @jamienholloway Last thoughts: When people are already aware, then awareness campaigns without action are empty. #bcsm |
| Stephanie Graff, MD, FACP, FASCO @DrSGraff @jumauba @stales That’s a great example: you can look for trials “too late” as many start to exclude “heavily pretreated” patients with 3 or more prior lines of therapy. #bcsm |

| patty spears @paspears88 @stage4kelly @stales Agree... we need more patients at the table to change this!

| Dr. Kelly Shanahan @stage4kelly @stales Of course between DOD grant review, @metavivor StageIV Stampede (both in DC), and speaking at the @KomenPugetSound NW mets conference it’ll be November before I know it! #bcsm |
 | When BC Happens @whenBChappens RT @double_whammied: It's almost Pinktober, aka #breastcancer awareness month. What do YOU want women (and men) to be aware of when it comes to this disease? #bcsm #amsm #bccww Me? It's not always a lump. Mamms arent perfect. Dense breast tissue ups your risk in 2 ways; know your density! |
| Dennis Keim @denniskeim Have a great week everyone. Always good to keep in touch and share things. :) #bcsm |
| Roberta A Albany @raalbany RT @paspears88: @stales @swaggsheila1 @double_whammied And AA women are underrepresented in clinical trials - need to address all issues around health disparities in breast cancer #bcsm |
| Jamie Holloway, PhD @jamienholloway Last thoughts: I don't love the pink. But it's a useful tool because people know what it represents. So maybe we use it to our advantage. Use the pink to teach or support research. #bcsm |
 | Minas Chrysopoulo MD FACS @drchrysopoulo @BCsurgstories @BreastAdvocate My experience = very favorable. Natural results w/ NO breast animation deformity (abnormal breast movement w/ pec muscle use). #FatGrafting routinely used to camouflage implant / rippling since less tissue covering the implant (vs placing under muscle) #BreastReconstruction #bcsm |
| swaggsheila @swaggsheila1 @stales Thank you #BCSM |
| Dr. Kelly Shanahan @stage4kelly @danielle_dk @DrSGraff @stales @ihatebreastcanc I’ll be posting again this October - and I’m going to try to also post a ‘trial-a-day” too #bcsm |
| Stephanie Graff, MD, FACP, FASCO @DrSGraff Last thought: October is a great month to pen a letter or drop a call to your elected officials about how insurance, family leave, medication costs, confidentiality, etc impacted YOU as a patient. Tell your story = make a difference. #bcsm |
| Alicia C. Staley @stales Thank you everyone! #bcsm |
 | Dr. Susan Love @DrSusanLove RT @denniskeim: Seem to me that focusing on the fact that an early stage diagnosis is no guarantee of a cancer-free life. #bcsm |
| Alicia C. Staley @stales @swaggsheila1 Thank you!! #bcsm |
| Alicia C. Staley @stales Have a great night everyone! #bcsm |

| Sarah @2013BCSarah RT @stage4kelly: @stales I’d love to see the name changed from BC Awareness Month to BC ACTION Month!! Could be everything from corporate $ for research to driving a neighbor to chemo to calling elected reps. #bcsm |
