The IBC Network Foundation. The purpose of IBC Network is simple:

To fund research regarding Inflammatory Breast Cancer. To provide an avenue to network proactive education to the general population as well as the medical community regarding Inflammatory Breast Cancer. Don't feel bad, most people are very uneducated about IBC. Our goal is to bring this "orphaned disease" into the limelight and encourage education and funding of research for this highly fatal 200 year old form of breast cancer. Now that you are here, take a few minutes and learn! We need to be educated on this cancer if we are going to save life's. Here is a quick check list of symptoms of IBC

Inflammatory breast cancer symptoms may include:

• Breast swelling, which one breast is suddenly larger than the other
• Breast that feels warm to touch and may look infected
• Itching or shooting pain
• A dimpling of the breast skin that looks like an orange peel (peau d’orange)
• Thickening of the skin
• Flattened or discolored ni**le
• Swelling in underarm or only on one side of neck

IBC doesn't care what race you are. Caucasian, African-American, Asian, Middle Eastern, all races are susceptible. And on darker skin, the redness or rash can be harder to spot. Know your body. Trust what you feel, even if you don't see it.

Metastatic IBC doesn't behave like other breast cancers, and treatment can't either. Specialty centers with focused research make the difference. Know the signs. Trust your gut. Get it checked.

Most people check for a lump. IBC (Inflammatory Breast Cancer) doesn't always give you one.

It moves fast, and it hides behind symptoms that get mistaken for a rash, an infection, or a bug bite: swelling, redness, dimpling skin, warmth, or a breast that suddenly looks or feels different.

This is why education saves lives. Not because everyone will get IBC, but because everyone who shares this might be the reason someone catches it early.

Know the signs. Trust your gut. Get it checked.

Share this to save a life. Or comment something you know about IBC, someone reading this might need it today.

So something special happened!

Yesterday we celebrated 20 years since the UT MD Anderson Cancer Center Morgan Welch IBC Research Program and Clinic was founded. MD Anderson welcomed patients, families, survivors, advocates, providers and researchers who shared the enormous impact the actions of a few passionate people have had on so many women in Houston, in Texas, and beyond. We were grateful to meet the newly appointed President Dr. Jeff Lee of MD Anderson for his warm appreciation and Representative Ann Johnson for her commendation of the program. The founders joined us by zoom and we heard the extraordinary stories from survivors and family members who have been inspired by their experience to raise awareness and support and fund research, fund progress. I delivered a donation to bring The IBC Network Foundation total giving to IBC research around the country to $2M! 💕💕

The most visited page? The one with information and images about inflammatory breast cancer.

That tells us something important: people are searching, worried, and looking for answers they can't find anywhere else. That's exactly why this work matters.

Watching someone you love fight IBC takes something out of you too. The appointments, the fear, the trying to stay strong when you're scared. Caregivers carry a weight that doesn't always get named.

If that's you: this is your reminder that you matter here too, and you don't have to carry it alone.

Know the signs. Trust your gut. Get it checked.
