My Why
I was diagnosed with Stage 3 Invasive Ductile Carcinoma with Lymph Involvement at the age of 38. No history of Breast Cancer or Cancer in my family. The news completely pulled the rug right out from under me, and my life was altered forever. My son was 2 years old at the time, and the thought of not being around to see him grow up terrified me. As scared as I was though I kept smiling, not for me, but for my loved ones. They too were on this journey of unknowns, it affected us all.
I am incredibly grateful for not only living in Boston and having access to the BEST Cancer Care around, but to Komen for all the support they showed me then, and how they cheer me on now!
