umm....fact check.

So, I was reading people.com and stumbled across Elizabeth Edwards' interview. Apparently her cancer has metastasized more, with tumors in her legs, spine and skull. Breast cancer most often metastasizes to the bones, brain, lungs or liver. But what got me was what she said...."It's less frightening than you think; it can't migrate to your brain." I am hoping she meant literally move from the skull to the brain, because breast cancer can certainly metastasize to your brain. I have had the good fortune to meet this woman, and she is really lovely. She is an amazing woman, and I am sad to hear that she has more bone mets. I actually think she gets treatment here at UNC.
