My chemo side effects were minimal, and the stuff got rid of the metastases all over my body. (lung, liver, lymph nodes)

My wife has metastatic breast cancer.
She had a lump removed in 2012, then two years ago found it was in her spine and hips. It’s progressed steadily, now has tumors on the lungs, liver, adrenals.
She’s bedridden, and has lost so much weight.
Side effects prohibit her taking Ibrance and Verzenio. They are trying to get approval for Piqray, but say it has side effects too.
She’s afraid to try chemo.
