This year, I joined the Komen community and registered for the Susan G. Komen Race for the Cure. I am dedicated to Komen’s mission of ending breast cancer forever, and I need your help. 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 who need our support. Whether it’s emotional 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.
My breast cancer journey began with a diagnosis I truly never expected. I was shocked and, in many ways, in denial about my family history and what it could mean for my own risk of developing breast cancer. One of the things I learned very quickly is that breast cancer can enter your life unexpectedly, and almost immediately, you are faced with making incredibly difficult decisions about your body, your treatment, and ultimately your life.
Although my cancer was detected at Stage 0, I quickly learned that “early” does not always mean “easy.” Within a matter of weeks, I went from processing a diagnosis I never imagined receiving to making some of the biggest and most personal decisions of my life about my treatment and my future.
I am incredibly grateful that my cancer was detected at Stage 0, but I also know that so many women will hear the words “breast cancer” after me. That is why I am committed to supporting continued research, early detection, better treatments, and ultimately a cure—so that every woman facing this diagnosis has more options, more answers, and more hope. Stage Zero. Strength 100.
