A teacher's assistant is not typically required to hold a Bachelor's Degree, so the average pay is much lower than that of the teacher in charge. A teacher's assistant averages about $21,000 yearly with a slight range between $19,300 and $27,400.
However, just because breast cancer has spread to the spine doesn't mean that it will spread to other areas. Doctors can treat the new tumors with radiation and new medications called bisphosphonates can block the progression of tumor cells in the bone and prevent the cancer from spreading to other organs.
Tumors that start in spinal tissue are called primary spinal tumors. Tumors that spread to the spine from some other place (metastasis) are called secondary spinal tumors. Tumors may spread to the spine from the breast, prostate, lung, and other areas. The cause of primary spinal tumors is unknown. Some primary spinal tumors occur with genetic defects.
