I’m STILL HERE because of the life-saving and game-changing development of Herceptin to treat HER2+ breast cancer. I’m STILL a mom to three wonderful daughters. I’m STILL a wife to the love of my life. I’m STILL a daughter to my amazing parents. I’m STILL a part of my loving in-law family. I’m STILL working to help our communities through my job in philanthropy. I’m STILL HERE.
For too many women before me, a diagnosis of HER2+ breast cancer was a death sentence. It is only thanks to the FUNDED work of scientists and researchers who developed Herceptin that I get to be STILL HERE.
Today, there too many women who are waiting for researchers to find a treatment for their type of breast cancer before it’s too late. I’m running so that they, too, have a chance to be STILL HERE.
