Around 2 years ago my wife was diagnosed with grade 3 locally advanced BC. It was in two lymphs and there were 2 tumours. I don't think staging is really a thing here in the UK, because they tend to use the TNM system. Stage 1-4 is more an American thing. But after pressing the oncologist, he said it would be classed as stage 3 in the US. So grade 3, stage 3. Very close to being terminal by all accounts, but they got there in time.

Two years out, and she's doing fine. No reoccurrence, and had a complete response to the chemo. She's at a weird stage as far as pre/post menopause goes. She's on Tamoxifen, but they aren't sure if she's post.

She was initially down for a mastectomy, but due to her full response to the treatment, it was down classed to a lumpectomy.

I won't lie, but depending on treatment, it can be rough at times, but having been given another shot at life, she'd do it all over again. so yeah, your grade and spread is more than curable.
