My Story
For those reading my story for the first time - mine is different than many others that support Komen. In 2015, I learned I was BRCA1+ with an 86% chance of breast cancer in my lifetime. It was at that time I decided that "waiting" to find out wasn't something I was willing to do. After all... my motto is:
Good things come to those who wait... but don't. You deserve better than GOOD.
After 6 preventative surgeries in 22 months - I am happy to report that my chances of cancer are under 5%.
I support Komen because I believe in their mission. I believe that this disease affects too many women (and men) and that prevention, early detection, advanced treatments, education, and research are our key to eradicating this disease. Your donation - no matter how big or small - helps us with this mission.
So, thank you... from the bottom of my heart, under my fake boobs. ;)
