Did it originate in the liver or is it metastatic to the liver?

Keep close to Nature's heart... climb a mountain or spend a week in the woods. Wash your spirit clean.* Victims of circumstance owe it to fate. Victims of choice owe it to themselves.*One of the widest gaps in human experience is the gap between what we say we want to be and our willingness to discipline ourselves to get there.

Started in Breast And traveled to the liver

 

It depends on the treatment; the highest rate of survival being those who receive liver transplants get something like a 75% chance of surviving for 5 years or so after diagnosis, but no one can really know and it is one of the deadliest of liver ailments because it usually occurs without symptoms. 

If we're talking about a metastatized breast cancer that moved to the liver, then it will soon enough show up in lungs, colon, bone marrow, pancreas, etc.  No two patients require the same treatment.  That is why we have teams and full diagnostics. 

Please do not hold out false hope.  Take this, like all parts of living, with the grace that will give you some genuine peace of mind.
