As many of you know, my sister was first diagnosed with Triple Negative Breast Cancer and sought a second opinion to confirm that she was cancer-free. Unfortunately, we learned that she has HR+ type of breast cancer that was not identified in the original pathology report and was missed in the two remaining lymph nodes after her surgery. She is now on medications to stop any cancer cells from growing and spreading. Both have side effects.
I hope you'll consider joining our team for the walk or making a donation to support Susan G. Komen. Susan G. Komen has been an incredible resource and has also supported her University Park publication as a sponsor. This is my opportunity to give back to an organization that has made such a meaningful difference.
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.
