My Story
This year, I joined the Komen community and registered for the Susan G. Komen MORE THAN PINK Walk.
In late September 2025, I went in for my yearly preventative mammogram and they saw something that wasn't there the year before. I was called back in for a diagnostic mammogram and ultrasound and then a biopsy. The biopsy came back positive. I was diagnosed with Triple Negative Breast Cancer at the age of 47. I didn't have immediate family history, I didn't have any genetic mutations, just bad luck. I elected to have a double mastectomy and the sentinel node biopsy showed no lymph node involvement. I have completed my 4 rounds of AC and 12 rounds of Taxol and am ready to get back to a "normal " life.
