About The 2025 Metastatic Breast Cancer Issue

Glimmer in the Grim

"Inside these pages, you’ll meet people who are walking the metastatic breast cancer path in all its complexity: the uncertainty and the deep, tender joy. You’ll find essays and activities about parenting through treatment, living out loud despite prognosis, and picking up a pen not just as an outlet but as a weapon to wield peace.

This issue is a love letter to those of us who’ve felt invisible in pink campaigns, who’ve longed to be seen as we are — thrivers, writers, parents, advocates, soft and strong all at once."

– Deltra James, a patient advocate, poet, podcaster, and death doula living with Triple-negative metastatic breast cancer.
