Is breast cancer just cancer found in the breast?

If you’re diagnosed with breast cancer is the rest of you safe? Or is it more like you have cancer in your body and it started in the breast?

There are many kinds of breast cancer. They do not all behave the same, and they also respond differently to female hormones. For example a good friend of mine died from her form, as she was pregnant and decided to basically give up her life to let the child live. Another woman I know was diagnosed at age 80, and was told she basically would not die of breast cancer, but of old-age issues, so they advised no treatment, and that really was the best thing for her. She lived another 11 years and passed away in her sleep.
