Since May 2019 I’ve undergone multiple mammograms, ultrasounds, and biopsies. I was diagnosed with stage 1 breast cancer on July 7, 2019 and had surgery on July 30, 2019, the day after my 50th birthday. I have a family history of breast cancer, so I elected a double mastectomy. I completed 12 rounds of chemo and now fighting like a girl!!!

Do you know a breast cancer hero or are one yourself?
