Marlo Matthews

Survivor

2 time thriver and always a survivor

Diagnosed twice with triple negative breast cancer, in 2014 and 2021, I feel blessed to have come this far. This road hasn’t been easy, I have been through biopsies, mris, pet scans. In total I had 30 chemos, 40 radiations, 12 blood transfusions, one lumpectomy (2014), and a bilateral mastectomy in 2021. There has been too many side effects to mention and too many tears have been shed. But still I have been lucky to have the love and support of my family and friends. I am still here watching my kids grow, enjoying time with my husband and family, and living my life. It’s not easy, but I won’t give up. It’s a pink life.
