My Story
This year, I joined the Lovely Lady Lumps and the Komen community and registered for the Susan G. Komen MORE THAN PINK Walk. I am dedicated to Komen's mission of ending breast cancer forever, and I need your help.
In her early 60s, my beautiful mother was diagnosed with a low-grade breast cancer and was treated with a right mastectomy and survived nearly 2 decades. In September 2023 I had an abnormal mammogram and after additional testing and biopsies I was ultimately diagnosed with bilateral DCIS (a low-grade breast cancer). Six surgeries later, I am breast cancer free with beautiful reconstruction. Unfortunately, however, many women aren?t as lucky. I?ve had friends and colleagues die in their 30s and 40s leaving young children, spouses, and loved ones behind.
So if you have it in your heart and your budget, please consider making a tax-deductible donation to our cause and help abolish breast cancer, which affects far too many of us.
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.
Will you please join me in this fight by making your donation today?
