My Story
I want to start by thanking you all for your support, prayers, and encouragement this past year. I am feeling strong and healthy, and in September I will officially become a one-year breast cancer survivor. As I approach this important milestone, I can’t help but think back to when I was first diagnosed in August 2020 after my routine mammogram. It was caught early, but I still had to undergo a lumpectomy and radiation for a few months. Then, three years later, in July 2023, during my routine mammogram, I was diagnosed with breast cancer for the second time and learned I would have to undergo a double mastectomy.
This year, I joined the Komen community and registered for the Susan G. Komen MORE THAN PINK Walk on October 26th. I will be walking 2.4 miles in celebration of my health, for women who aren’t healthy enough to walk, and in honor of those who have lost their battle. I walk because I am committed to the fight against breast cancer! You are the best support system I could ask for, and I hope you consider supporting my team and helping in the fight against breast cancer. Please consider making a tax-deductible donation today in support of my fundraising efforts.
Your support helps us get one step closer to a world without breast cancer. Funds raised help support breakthrough research and provide assistance to those facing breast cancer today who need our support. Whether it’s emotional support via Komen’s helpline, financial support through Komen’s financial assistance program, or navigation services to break down barriers to care, Komen will be there for them.
Ending breast cancer needs all of us, and your generosity can make a real difference. Together, let’s show breast cancer patients there’s a whole community standing by their side.
