This past year, I joined the 330,000+ women (and men) who are diagnosed in the US with breast cancer each year. In January I had surgery, and went through radiation in March. For the next 5 to 10 years, I will be on preventative medication.
I am extremely grateful to have had wonderful care from the medical team at the Dubin Cancer Center at Mount Sinai Hospital. It is remarkable to witness the technological advances since my mother, grandmother, great-grandmother, and aunt went through their cancer treatments. Unfortunately, they eventually lost their battles with this disease, but I am optimistic that the rest of us have a good chance to survive, with early detection and proper treatment.
Please help me and my NYC Navigator Pink Striders team in supporting the Susan G. Komen RACE FOR THE CURE. We are dedicated to Komen's ONE mission of ending breast cancer forever, and we need your help. Please consider making a tax-deductible donation today in support of our 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 treatment assistance program, or help navigating their care journey, Komen will be there for them.
In moments like this, 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 us in this fight by making a donation today? With appreciation and love, Brenda xx
Team Captain
